Old Vintage Look

« on: February 01, 2012, 07:22:25 AM »

Hi Everyone,

I fell in love with this photo the minute I saw it. Please take a look and let me know if anything more needs attention. It seems that the original was a tint but I’m not sure I have quite right tint color. Also I had a difficult time sorting out the background so I'm not sure I've treated that quite right. Thank you.

Hi Pat. It looks to me like the original photo had some water damage on the girl decreasing her contrast some and fading the background to the right of the girl.

The finished photos to me show a difference in contrast between the faces of the boy and the girl. Perhaps slightly increasing the girl's contrast may help

Pat,

I think I will go even darker on her so that the shadow under her hat matches the shadow under his hat.
