The nineth of Monday:

Nearing the end of our "classic" looking project (which is due tomorrow, i've noticed that it's pretty challenging to make photos look hundreds of years old. Sure, i can make it sepia-tone or any other tint to achieve the old discolored look. But to make it look real and legitimate, there's alot more that i noticed i need to do. In lamens terms, It's not all about the post-editing. The whole background,foreground and midground all need to look old as well. Taking a photo of a modern bulding or modern anything for that matter, and adding the old classic effects to it just doesnt make sense. Likewise, it looks terrible. i found this hard because very seldomly anymore, can you find old things to take photos of, that will look half way decent with classic post editing techniques. Overall, i wouldn't say this project was hard, by any means, but rather just a challenging one.
