Adding a Vintage look to your photos

After spending a fortnight in Cuba, I got used to the vintage feel of the place and felt like some of my photos would really 'pop' if I did some editing to make them look vintage and really capture the essence of the place. I found a really good photoshop tutorial on digitalartsonline, there are actually two possibe tutorials you can use to achieve this effect but I went for this one

Here is the original photo:


You'll have seen this image featured in an earlier blog post.

And here's the edited one. I really loved the original but now I have spent some time adding the vintage effect, I think it works so much better! Very pleased with my newly learnt techniques and looking forward to using them again later in the year.


What do you think?
