biglouis Posted November 6, 2010 Share #1 Posted November 6, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thought I'd have some fun with these pictures and try to recreate how they may have looked back in the 1850s when the ship first went into service. These were taken at the museum in Bristol which must boast one of the most impressive restorations ever seen of a Victorian ship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

biglouis Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share #6 Posted November 7, 2010 Thanks all. I've always looked on the grain slider in LR3 as a bit of a gimmick but in this case I figured it would turn snapshots into something a little more interesting.

ejd Posted November 7, 2010 Share #7 Posted November 7, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) The pictures are very atmospheric, and the sepia toning gives them the 1850s feel. And have you reduced the contrast too? The grain looks great, but is it right for a picture from then, which would have been taken using a huge glass plate, hardly any enlargement, and no visible grain? Very nice pictures though!
