Photo from the Past

by Lucky Lee

This picture started out as a portrait of a re-enactor portraying a WW2 Para.
I thought it might work if I made it look like a distressed photo that you might find in some old album today; a reminder of a past age.

Great original shot, good idea to produce an aged print. Not sure if you've quite accomplished your aims. But what do I know about it?!
Best wishes,

Andrew

Nice composition, but I also added to it a grainy effect.

Maria & Gábor: Thanks for the comments; I'll still play around with this one and see if I can get it any better.
