Description
I love aged photography, and I feel this turned out pretty well. I captured what i wanted. Long night of sleep dep and fingerpaints aided in this series.Feedback is appreciated so please let me know what you think.

Wow, what a beautiful picture! I love the blurred and aging effects, it makes it stand out. The color is just as nice. Lovely work!

I personally like the longing in the model's face, although she was sleep dep'd as hell.
But that's the emotion this one brings to me now.... a longing for something that could have been, buit never was simply because of circumstances. You're still a kindred soul, though.

this is beautiful, i know it doesnt really apply but it reminds me of the photos they used to take of dead people so their soul wouldnt be lost. Ever seen any of those? Its prob the darkness and mood of it. I really like the decay you added to the photo, looks old that way. This is very nice

Yes, I have seen some of those, you know I never really thought of it in that context, but it does make sense. Thank you for the compliments on the shot, Im glad you like the aged feel of it. By the way, I checked out your page and you have some really good work too

Absolutely splendid photograph. I've been staring at it for a few moments now, trying to figure out exactly what captures me so. The soft focus and lack of detail is amazingly done here, in my opinion. It's very soft, sensual, and almost ... I want to say mysterious, but that's not the word I'm looking for. Hm.
Maybe I'll stare at it for a few moments longer. Muaha. ^_^

So it's not historically accurate as far as old photos go. It's still great work. It's more interesting that she's showing some emotion anyway, and your manipulations are good as well. It reminds me of an old film reel that's skipping.

Neat, looks like it has been lying on an attic for ages
-now make a version with sephia toning...

cool image.... ive found that if you take the negative and rub it with wool or even as extrem as concrete you get sum pretty amazing effect whrough the enlarger... but yeah you have depicted a very morose scene... the feeling almost etheral

It's wonderful, I love the subject and your treatment. I'm really wanting to see less empty space on top of the picture and more on the bottom though. The toes of the model and chair are cutoff...... The blurring and 'dirtying' up is quite wiked, though! and I like the harsh, brightly lit areas.

I like this photo for the simple reason it is not like your typical "tinprint" or sepia, it has a character all its own that I think make the viewer want to look deeper into the blurriness, to see what you are hiding

Great photograph -- is this naturally aged, or did you use some brush effects?

I appreciate your input. I understand that it may appear as though I was trying for a period image. Allow me to clarify -
I love the aged photo technique, but I wasnt going for a period piece here, otherwise I would have made sure the set dressing, clothing, hair, posture etc. reflected it. Here I was shooting something more personal, images I had in my mind that represented something to me. I personally dont believe in "should be"'s unless Im specifically categorizing a piece of art; I was going for the honest representation of what I wanted, and to have her in straight posture with covered legs would have killed that. Thanks again for your comments though, I enjoy feedback, and Ill post up the period photos Ive done sometime.

Aged photo is not simply brown colour and lots of scratches. The subjects should look as if they come from that time, too. Here, the opsture is wrong. On all the old pics I've seen, the subjects were straight as ramrods. Plus, bare legs? Hmm....
Lag.
