~RSC-Escher's Original Description

Hey all, well here goes nothing...

First I opened the pic in ps cs,
2:selected Koku's outline using mask, feathering it around the hair line to keep a bit of the fuzz.
3:inverted slection to highlight the background
4:used curves to lower the brightness of the background
5:edited the mask to using a brush at about 18% opacity to feather Koku's far ear
6:used lens blur to further lower the background, bluring Koku's ear to maintain the illusion of depth of field
7:used dodge and burn to lower some highlights from the flash on Koku
8:sharped image using 50%strength/2 pixel/0 threshold
9:used a gradient map adj layer using a dark brown to white gradient, made the layer effect color only, opacity at 20%
10: saved for web
