This is a big improvement Geoff! Very nice job!

It looks like you changed the colour balance (the original was overly pink), got rid of the background cast and improved contrast. It's now a far more pleasing natural palette.

Cheers,
Marcus

Thanks Marcus. I should have remembered to “wait a few days before uploading an image”
