Fix It Friday #89

This week the Fix It Friday is of a handsome young man. I really like the composition of this image. The colors are fantastic!

Original:

My color edit:
Opened is CS4
Slight crop
Dodged/Burned
Color boosted midtones
Sharpened
Added a Jessica Drossin texture opacity 30% overlay
Flattened and saved as jpeg

The black and white is my own action

Tried a little more edgy editing to this one::

And another done in vintage just because. :)

Head on over to I Heart Faces to check out some other edits and thanks for stopping by!
