Description
This is a photo of me when I was a little child. I believe it was taken by my mother, but the artistic edit was done by me. This shot is now some 56 years old or more, and had become badly degraded. The image was one that I found haunting, though, so I set about processing it as an art piece in order to save it, and ended up liking it much more than if it were perfect! Much of the texturing you see on this was a result of it having been scanned from the original negative, which had stuck to another negative. The resulting effect was one that I probably couldn't have gotten if I'd tried, but that brought out all the charm of the scene. There is another in this series which I like even better, and I will post that shortly.They would make a lovely pair! If you want a very gentle portrait that takes you back into another time- the 1950's- these will do the trick!
