New edits of old photos.

Back in 2009, I edited one image from a shoot because its strangeness appealed to me.
This week, I edited two more conventional photos because I learned more about editing and could do a better job than before. Photos like these are an interesting time capsule. How does the model look today, eight years later?
Starting from a color digital file, I could do precise color to B&W conversion, edit tone curves extensively, do a lot that would have been nearly impossible in the conventional darkroom. Some geniuses, like Misha Gordin, can do miracles with enlargers. I prefer the crutch of Photoshop. And a philosophical comic strip addressing nudity.
My Facebook link to this post was removed. Curious to see if the reference to the famous statue would also get removed.
