Does anyone out there know how to apply an age to color photos. Not a weathered look but more of a porcelain skin but still colored...not black & white though... I've just seen it on a couple of websites but can not figure out how to get that look! Thanks for your help! |

Sepia tone is often used to enhance age. I have used this often in my websites. Click on Model Mayheim below ... Define Pocelain skin more and show examples ...

There is a preset value on Lightroom, "Aged Photo" that I like to use:  --------------------------- Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. |

The example you showed looks a lot like a sepia to me :dunno: --------------------------- It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived. George S.

It looks like they just lessened the color saturation on that shot- very lovely. I like that look (in certain photos): http://www.flickr.com/photos/karibet...7601263847147/ |

Yeah, that's what I was thinking but I thought maybe I would throw it out there anyways. Thanks for the reply! |

I would say photomerge of b&w sepia with color photo. I have done this often with wedding shots. Its quite normal to do wedding shots w a combo of lower saturation color, photo merge, sepia. Just experiment with it. Next ... EL --------------------------- PIC Austin Texas Measure Twice - Cut Once Focus Twice - Click Once H.I. Human Intel is always better and cheaper than A.I.

There is a preset in lightroom that is called cold tone as well, and it has an effect a lot like this, but as others have said, it looks a lot like it is just a drop in the saturation to like a %25 level. --------------------------- Nevermind -- I'll take care of it myself! |

I found a "vintage" action the other day out on atncentral that might do what you are looking for. Go to that link and download the "Aly's Vintage" action set. (it has examples there for you to see what it does) --------------------------- Formally "mjae69" Mel Canon 5DMII, 30d, 20d + some "L" and 2.8 cool stuff |
