Oh, this is fantastic, Vernon!

How did you achive those delicate lines?

And, on the other hand, you don't let us down - not only is the post-processing great, the theme of the pic itself is superb.

The near ground perspective is great here - the interior framing works but I think that the overall darkness could be made stronger.

Very nice shoot and great processing. The texture on the alley is impressive, and the perspective is perfect too... nothing else to say !

The perspective, DOF, and tones are great and the photo definitely fit into vintage processing. The only suggestion I could come up with is maybe just a little less defined striations towards the lighter areas as they are a little distracting.

Hehe, first i thought you misspelled saturation ("Stiration") :)))

Then, luckily, I was cautious enough to check it before making a complete fool of myself :)))

A "very nice" more comment. but it's true !!

Wonderful composition and great textures. My only issue is the faint vertical stripes in the lighter part of the image. Is that a product of the processing of the image? I think they subtract from the composition.

Having said that, I'm totally impressed with the toning that you have achieved through the processing of this image

Chris

thanks everybody :-)

well, the processing was done to achieve the feeling of an old photograph in an old wooden box, accompanied by some other photographs, rings, necklaces and stuff like that. so over the years, all this stuff in the box have left their marks on that photograph. I also did some bend marks on it, but for some reasons they aren't visible anymore after the compression :-/

cheers
v.t.

I love what you acomplished with the colors. The proximit with the ground also makes a very nice effect on the image. Very good work both on the picture and on the processing.

Great shot Vernon. I love how the light fades and the people are at the perfect spot.

Great shot! Deserves to be featured.

Gorgeous! I will have to check this out next time I'm in Vienna.
