Was dit werkelijk zo'n slechte foto zoals een zwart-wit kijker en zijn gevolg beweerde ?

Bijlange niet, anders zou ik er met enkele kliks deze WS niet van gemaakt kunnen hebben ... laat je zomaar niet inpakken door zo voorspelbare posters van altijd hetzelde, andere onderwerpen dan de hunne niet tolererend, dit is kleingeestig !

light and colormmanagement on different areas

like I told this possibility in my B&W version, I did it for you you to show the result of a B&W luminosity blend and adjusting colors very subjective to my taste and looking for more unique colortones less seen too often.

Enjoy

working on layers with different contrast/brightness enhancing target houses,
possible to do straight from RAW with different exposures conversions for even finer result.

Do a luminosity blending overlay with this B&W once, then you could start to harmonise colors to something totally different, B&W often a carrier for light management.

working with colors is still most difficult , you have on top to harmonise colors

I thought there was more in it to bring out:

the frontplan harder, lighter, sharper, bodyskin even more smooth but ferm and eyes sharp as knifes,
in contrast to
a light gloom on background to enhance the contrast between passionate piercing and dreamy gloomy

I hope you like it Carlos
although I contest B&W not as pro-photography anymore since functional balanced colors have that extra of a psychologic enphatic impact.

tweaking light and colors

playing with light-contrasts and colors to the more dramatic choice of your main post.

Like you tried already to indicate, every photo has its own requirement to enhance what you felt taking the shot, same as people, we don't go naked to a diplomatic ball, although it can be surprising :) like your B&W choice.

contrast+ on a luminosity blended layer and duplicated color blending in opacity.
