general Robert E Lee

[pharris201]

Hi all
I was given the oppertunity to photograph the character of General Lee at a reenactment. As thing s go in a cow field I ended up with less than optimum results. What can I do to make this work?

Well - I think you nailed it with the old film look. Sure looks authentic! I would almost like to see more grain in the shopped photo. The shadow on his face works for me, too.

Just my .02

I bet General Lee there would be quite happy with your results.

|Works for me great work.

All the best
