Kicki

Having fun with photos again. Found this image of my wife I took back in 2010, and decided to experiment a bit. Using Photoshop and NIK 6 Silver Efex, I made four variations on the original, each with its own distinctive look to mimic a time period.

The filters certainly help a lot, and I’m particularly impressed with Silver Efex. The ability to switch among different simulated analog film types and papers is so much fun. Makes it hard to take a decision on which one to use though…
