Sepia Beauty

[Lynnya]

Hi guys.. I think I'm right in thinking that this should be a shade of sepiaish.. (new term) I haven't touched it yet.. but it looks like one of those pictures you can dress up for which is made to look antique.. what say you oh wise ones..

Now I'm not sure... I did a levels.. then curves for black and white points.. all stayed somewhat sepiaish.. then I did a gray point using difference method and this is what came up.... hmmmmm your thoughts please??

Yup.. good thinkin...  :up:

Amazing what a difference the correction made. Look forward to seeing your next WIP. Know it will be good.

Lynna, what a sweet picture. I agree that this is one of those tourist type photos made to look old. I wonder if the blue pattern object on your right is part of another photo that transferred the image over. I would be tempted to remove it and recreate the intact background and more shadows going down. To me it would be silly to have her looking into some type of cloth.
