Clear Shadows on this image

Russell Kling

Is there any of you great Capture One experts that can help me with this image, it was taken awhile ago when I was very green around the edges and as you can see there are some terrible shadows on her chest. This image is from my 31 yr old daughter that died of Metastatic breast cancer a few weeks ago. I started getting some images to print and ran across this image, can someone please help me with this image, I would appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.

 

Thank you in advance

Russ

    At this very late hour, I tried to achieve a result that
    could be pleasing to you… I hope I succeeded.
    Better result may be expected from the RAW file.

    DR was corrected in CO, shadows in Affinity Photo.

    I understand your pain. Losing a child…

    Thanks for your kind comments, I have two daughters and they mean the world to be, its a terrible thing to happen to any parent, I will miss her with my soul.

     

    Here is a link to the raw file, it's an older camera a Nikon D2X hopefully you can get it any cleaner.

    Hi Russ, did you look at the link I posted for you?

    Yes I did sorry that wasn’t clear, it looks better, if the raw helps you more I’d appreciate it. I’d like to do a 16x20 poster or canvas from this image, but as you know it need to be a good larger file than what we are working with on this forum.

    Thanks again

    Hi Russ,

    1, the actual 2:3 ratio of the image should be made 4:5. A
        proper, acceptable to you, crop should be suggested.

    2, I've contacted the retoucheur this morning and learned 
        that she is hospitalised for CV19 in GB and will not be
        back to work for some weeks at least… sorry for that.

    Maybe someone else could chime in.

    I am far from a pro retouche artist… just a photographer
    but I tried this

    The full res of it for your eventual 16x20 is here:

    Hi Russ, here is my attempt, I hope you like it, it's in TIFF format for best print quality possible, only problem is a bit heavy on the download. Let me know when you get it so I can delete the link, since I don't have Dropbox Pro.

    I'm sorry for your loss, my best thoughts for you.
