I have just been playing around in photoshop with a picture I took yesterday of the Balmoral departing Southwold pier in Suffolk and I would be interested if you think to antique effect on picture 2 works.

IMHO it works great. Looked at the original and thought that it would be better suited to B&W or sepia before I read what you had typed or scrolled down to the processed one.

Maybe great minds think alike :thinking:
 
Yes, your antique effect works well and you've done a fine job.


As for this comment......


I admire the technique but why take a sharp shot on your expensive modern kit and then deliberately make it look soft and tatty

:shrug: I'll keep my thoughts to myself.

This is a common mistake and one that you can spot a mile away.

Expensive camera take nice clean crisp shots, with hardly any noise.

Camera's of yester-year, had loads of noise, rough edges and out of focus area's, so just adding a colour cast to it, still makes it look like a new photo, made to look old.

Adding the affore-mentioned elements can make it quite hard to distinguish whats old and what new.

To the OP, i like your thinking though. ;)
