Graduated filters were applied diagonally to darken the bright areas and light up the dark areas. Cropping, some minor cloningon my forehead, and vignetting (darkening the edges) finishes the look. Yes, I probably could have done a little more to perfect the shot, but we were hungry and wanted to eat. That's often the outcome of well-planned "on location" lighting; spend an hour setting it up, and five minutes actually shooting. And every once in a while, there's food waiting for you after a good shoot :)
