Hi. This is my first attempt at Photoshop Elements and I am pretty pleased with the result. I converted a colour photo to Sepia, selected Vintage and added some noise too. The result was just what I was looking for, but wish I could get the face a bit lighter. I would welcome any comments. Photoshop is a steep learning curve and I have so much to learn!

Hi Luanne, first off this is a well composed, moody shot. I like the conversion, the grainy effect may be a bit overdone for my taste, but the overall effect is still good. I suspect this would have stood up well just as a straight colour or black and white conversion, so well done!

Peter
