Nishon, I love this soooo much! Great job with the tinting. What program do you use to do that?

  Thanks, Dale Ann! The photo was done in sepia and then I hand-tinted the photo with oil paints. The photo starts out very bright in color, and then with a piece of cottonball (real cotton) you start to wipe the color away. I have to admit I don't have a program for photos. I'm a hobbyist thinking of the semi-pro thing. I have fun with it!!

  Nishon, thanks for sharing your technique. I am totally clueless when it comes to actually using film and processing it yourself. I'm very impressed! I wish I could find a way to get that look with PS. I know it's probably possible, but haven't taken time to try. Thanks again, and great photo!
