Mind me asking how you're doing the color change? I ask because I can think of probably 3-5 ways of doing it, yours works well on the highlights and midtones but the shadows are keyed up a lot. I'm wondering if your method would work in combination with another to preserve the darker tones too.

i'm excited to see what a pro can do! i hear what you're saying. the original pic has some strong highlights that i've tried to get rid of to give a more even tone, (used a contrast mask, and some other methods), but didn't really like the results. as far as color change, i desaturate using the average of lightness and luminosity, then i use the hue and saturation attributes to get the color close to what i want. after that i sometimes tweak the tone one way or another using the input and output levels.
i'm interested in what insight you have for me
