Another Found Image

Was looking for a high key photo I took a while ago.  It was not in my image library.  Found it in a desktop folder along with a few other images.  I was curious if this one was salvageable.  It wasn’t but here it is anyway.

I had to go B+W because I had brutalized the color trying to pull in the shadows and highlights.  I did the sepia highlights to move the burned out area off of 255/255/255 (ie pure white).  I did the duo tone because I wanted the cool interior to offset the warm outside light.  I darkened the corners to further remove some of the burn.   In the end just not enough detail in the highlights.  (I think the shadows are fine.)

I do like the duotone.  I think that worked.
