Hi Trish! THanks for that generous comment! Usually the way achieve the soft smooth skin tones is by creating a duplicate layer in PS7, then I use the lasso tool to select the face. Then on the background layer I put a diffused glow, using a sample color from the face, I take out all the grain, and then go back to the original layer, and adjust the opacity to allow just enough of the diffused glow to show through to smooth out the skin. If you need a further explanation, drop me an email and I'll try to go into more detail.
Thanks again for the nice comment!

Simpatico retrato. El encuadre me parece muy correcto así como el enfoque selectivo que destaca a la niña sobre un fondo luminoso y colorista. La exposición me parece adecuada para resaltar con suaves tonos la simpatica y dulce expresion de la niña. Saludos desde Bilbao
