Default Cross Processed Model

Had a random shoot for an eZine.

The theme was 'grunge' and I thought the cross process look would work.

I ran a cross process filter in LR and adjusted from there until I liked the look of it. Focus is a little off cause we were shooting in the dark.

All opinions appreciated

The soft focus doesnt really work for me. You should have used the focus illumination lamp. The processing looks good but a bit of seperation between the model and the wall would look good cause as it is the shadow on the wall blends with her dress/face and makes her look big.

Same here. The colors and effect are nice, is just the shadow.

You know what also looks amazing is giving it a film grain and a unique sepia different from the norm....looks very old school

I think the image looks very good. I don't like the shadow against the wall, but I think that even the out-of-focus is OK because it makes the whole picture look a little more drug-hazey which kind of represents the grunge feel.

i like the colors from the cross processing it's got quite a bit of red and orange in there which most seem to be heavily green tinted and i like to see the red colors come out the only thing that bothers me is the focus being off but you already knew about that and not really something you can fix in post but i like the effect
