Testing A New Fad...Our Subject: The Beautiful Kai
Okay, FM Friends! I want to run something by all of you!
We\'ve all seen the new fad on display in the last number of months: \"Vintage\" as it has been referred to here, on the forum, or images \"toned,\" sometimes with colors that traditionally, might not be selected for portraits:
Mixtures of greens, blues, purple, reds, and any number of others.
The objective of this exercise is to determine if you feel a particular photo is improved but the application of \"Vintage\" filters in post or if a more traditional post processing treatment is preferable for the posted image.
The rules of the game:
- For the purposes of this exercise assume the crop, composition, model, pose, expression and wardrobe are perfect--we want to focus on the post-processing.
- Compare the three photos below and if you wish, articulate why you like or dislike the post-processing by commenting--keeping in mind the objective.
- Vote in the poll to select the version of the photo you like best (if any).
Image 1: This is how I would normally process this particular image. No particular filters applied except for my normal Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS6 processing.
Image 2: Same image with the application of a color overlay in Photoshop.
Image 3: This image has a slightly tweaked version of the VSCO C - Polaroid 690 ++ filter applied.
Thanks for your participation!
