Different approach here - using history brush, USM, and Gaussian blur snapshots and Georege DeWolfe's fine art technique for selective sharpen and blur.

My only suggestion would be to consider softening your daughters features a bit. Seems sharper than necessary and somewhat inconsistent with the mood and other processing style.

Karen and Scott,
Thanks for your thoughts.
Yes, that particular technique allows more targeted tweaks (at least in my case). I recall specifically hitting along the edge or her nose 'just one more time' for added definition - perhaps going over the edge in the process
Again, thanks for your thoughts and suggestions - sometimes (? - only sometimes?) I lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of detail and technique.
