Our esteemed leader with Picasa

I hope that my effort as a make-up artist pays tribute to our leader. With the help of Picasa, I have cropped this picture from a photo of four people. First I removed the unattractive "red eye". Then I applied fill light, played with shadows and highlight(er)s as well as removing grain. After that I used a graduated tint with some feathering. Finally, I applied a soft glow. The results are quite stunning - especially for a novice.
