This was an experiment and from the results i think it was the wrong pic to use but makes portraits a bit grundgier and the subject look a bit older and more unkept I guess. I am going to get more into this technique for sure ther eare some out there doing amazing portraits like this. The people who are all about the real look and feel might not like it though more of an over worked look on some.

this is the after shot being draganized......

Here is second version not so desaturated....
