Suitable For Framing

Uploaded: February 22, 2007

Description


Another composition in my antique store series....these frames were found
sitting in a back hallway, and I was able to shoot through a doorway to get this shot.
I applied several filters in Elements 5.0, including film grain, poster edges, and a
slight posterization. The saturation, contrast and shadow detail were also adjusted.

Perfectly framed image!
I think this image would look just as good without all the FX. It's well conceived. #609521

I like it a whole lot too. Like Les, I'd be interested to see it without the effects, too. Nice job! #3974586

Thanks guys and gals!! Your comments are a big help and most appreciated! I played with this for quite a while... now I'm curious too, to go back and adj the original without any effects. Sometimes I jump into PS and go right by what I originally saw when I took the shot!! I'll post another image to 101 when I have time to get back to this. #3975632

Your effects are terrific as is your composition, colors and lighting, Brian!! It would be interesting to see whether the image stands alone without filters. #3975977

Thank you, Cathy and Melissa!! (Les and John also suggested an effects-free image, so I will be going back to see what I can come up with!! #3976589

I really need to expand my horizons and just wander more.
This is a great find!!
I, too, would like to see it uneditted.
