    Another old photo of the the old barn. :) This time I went for a faded, slightly damaged look. After converting the image to B&W, I overlaid it with a texture that I created from two wood grain photos. I then modified the toning a little with hue/saturation, lightened the edges and corners a bit, and added a little noise. Any C&C would be most appreciated.

    A very appealing treatment of this subject - I would say you achieved your goal of a faded, slightly damaged look - nicely done!

    You are getting good at this Christopher. If I found this in a drawer I would really think it is an old photo. Well done.

    Christopher, You really are getting too good at this. The color toning and aging are terrific! Maybe a tiny bit off the bottom. Nice work!:)

    Nice image and application, Christopher.

    I might suggest a little more open area on the left to offset the barn a little more. But ... Your image ... your vision.
