New one of my daughter using cross process action. Digital capture.

Old one of a friend with post processing. Shot in studio on BW 4 x 5 film and scanned from print.

The dark part is deliberate. Mebbe went a bit too dark? But I was mainly interested in the face.

If only I knew what "cross processing" means!?
Kalee uses the same process for her portraits and I find it highly effective!
That action in addition with your eldest daughters beauty... perfect model! Very nice photo!

The second is as nice!
Ah, I wish my own little "model" would WANT me to take her photo more often, so I could try out more things...

Very nice JonK :thumbup: Well done.

awww thank you nidhi

Hey corinna...cross-process comes from the world of film. It's when you take slide film and process it in print film chemistry...comes out with results similar to this. And that is the action kalee uses. Thanks for your comments.

Thanks Mako.

The 'action' is an automated process in photoshop. I downloaded the action and placed it in the Photoshop actions folder, open my image, click on the action I want and 'play' it. It steps thru the entire process of applying filters, adjustments , etc. while I sit back and have a drinkie. :mrgreen:
It makes life a whole lot easier if you have fifty shots you want to do the same thing to. You can also 'record' your own actions in Photoshop.
