Not sure if I will remember all the steps cause there were a lot of them. Duplicate image- levels to darken - blend mode to overlay - duplicate - nagative image-gaussian blur 45 - blend mode to overlay (I think) lowered opacity - paste as a new image- lower opcaity- create new mask layer and paint in black - painted with gradient in some areas and grey in others. Took 2nd image - inverted - levels- gaussian blur - pasted as a new layer - blend mode to soft light - lower opacity. flatten image. duplicated image again - burn tool on midtones - inverted image - gaussian blur at 45 - blend mode to overlay- flatten. - duplactae - hue adjustemnt set to colorize and adjusted to almost a sepia tone - blend mode to soft light - flatten - duplacate - adjust contrast blend mode hue. adjusted colors. Then I thought the tombstones were too dark so i copied the orginal photo - pasted as new layer - lowered opacity - new mask layer - painted the top portion with black and then the lower with 50% grey, I think that was it for the most part

what would you do
