Question New Old Shot...
...

New Old Shot I

Nikon D60
FL: 18mm
SS: .001sec (1/1000)
AV: f/3.5
ISO: 100
EB: 0/6 EV

I've never done much in the way of aging photos, but I'd like to gather some opinions on this piece as a start...It's pretty generic stylistically, but technically, I'm not so sure...

Looks pretty good to me...maybe a bit too saturated for the look of an old photo but still well done with the texture.

Yes - far too colourful for an old photo. However, I think it works brilliantly - the vivid colours contrast with the marks and splotches.

You could kick off a new style called "happy grunge"!

I think it is cool! Reminds me of an old football card.

i agree that's the colors are too bold too have a genuinely 'aged' look, but i love the photo itself. the colors are wonderful and it kinda has a style all of its own. good work!
