Photo WOW!!

Ok, I really shouldn't share this with you, because then the secret is out and you won't stare in wonder at me anymore....

Oh, yeah, didn't you realise? that's your job!! My job is to be amazing, and your job is to be amazed. Ok, just kidding.

I am a member of a few yahoo groups, not to mention a blog-hopper, and this came my way this evening, and I couldn't wait to play. I already read Anita's blog on a semi-regular basis (daily as opposed to those blogs I check several times a day hahaha).

I had never heard of these Cameras before, but it's a "Faux Lomo" effect to simulate this amazing look obtained, by all people, by the KGB. Man, those guys could teach ME some stuff. Even DH approves, which is a bit scary.

Here's the before pic. Very before.... NO post processing done at all, which I would normally at least tidy it up a BIT... 350D's leave grey casts on photos, that are very easy to take out and make a world of difference. Ok, off topic again. Sorry. :)



First I fiddled with it myself and converted it to a very nice sepia... (If I do say so myself....)



Then, all you need to do is go HERE and follow Anita's very simple steps.... and this is what you'll get.


Isn't it a stunning effect? Not one I'd use on EVERY photo, ok, but MAN.... this is just what I needed with all the extra scrapping I'll be getting up to! So THANKS Anita, you rock!
