Dave,
It's a terrific action portrait but unfortunately you've just missed
focus on her eyes, the camera's grabbed the lint on her helmet
instead.
Have you ever thought about localised sharpening. Just make a
correction layer and sharpen it for the eyes, not caring about the
quality of anything else. Then put an unsharpened layer on top and
erase just the eyes, so that the sharpened layer shows through only at
the eyes.. You'll get sharp eyes but keep the smooth soft tones of
the rest of the girl's face
regards, Anthony
