Advertisement Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Hi 911turbojk, Take a look here Does anyone know how to get this from a LEICA M8?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
stunsworth Posted July 13, 2009 Share #2 Posted July 13, 2009 Here's my attempt. I added a sepia layer, then reduced its opacity to 70%. Then upped the contrast with a curves layer. Finally I added some vignetting - this is perhaps a bit overdone. Welcome, dear visitor!

Marquinius Posted July 13, 2009 Share #3 Posted July 13, 2009 Jack, I'm sure this has nothing to do with M8, but is digital post processing all the way. Of course you need to start with a DNG (RAW) in order to get the most out of the processing. The toning reminds me of a standard developping preset for Lightroom: "aged photo". There's some desaturation in these photos and some sepia. Furthermore there is a vignette, which I'm sure has been applied on purpose. I'd try a white balance of somewhere around 10.000 (yep, really high) and a desaturation of 60% and start from there. Add the vignette and see what you get. I did some local burning and added a slight graduate filter on the bottom. Oh, and why not ask the guy who took the photos how he did it? I wouldn't mind if someone asked me Welcome, dear visitor!

stunsworth Posted July 13, 2009 Share #4 Posted July 13, 2009 To get the sepia tone I used one of the following actions... TLR B&W Toning | The Light's Right I've been playing with these for a few days, I particularly like the Platinum setting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but I just really want to know how he did it,,, love that tone sooo much. Jack Someone said it: it looks a bit like LR's "aged photo" preset. What that preset does is reducing saturation, increasing exposure and adding warmth to the photo by pushing WB quite a bit to the right. You might want to add some colour back to the photo using "vibrance" and avoid pushing the exposure as far as the LR preset does, and you'll have more or less what you see in those photos.

zenonzinonos Posted July 14, 2009 Share #6 Posted July 14, 2009 If you have iPhoto you can achieve a similar result by selecting 'effects' 'antique' and then 'fade color'. The great thing about this process is that you can make progressive changes and preview before saving. Also, no need to work with RAW images...
