This is my contribution for fridays theme: a scene from old city of London, with an old building and the cars look old, too...
I played with Photoshop and I don't remember the procedure I used to obtain this effect. I thihk it was someting with the texture.

In my WS you can see the color version and another sepia version.

I hope you like my experiment!

Hello Lili,I like all three,good PP work,though the pastel effect with added texture gives a soft look to the image I do prefer your color version because of its rich colors.

Ron

Hi Liliana,
Beautiful composition and picture for the theme of Helen,I love the PPwork that you have made it is very well done, Excllent POV. and details , great shot,
Mes salutations.

Hi Liliana,
Apparently this version is popular and for good reasons .I think it has great appeal as the scene itself evokes old times very well (old looking taxis passing along on the old pavement in front of that old building ... )The effect has given it a very interesting feel and look to it ,no doubt about this.In view with the workshops you have prepared Liliana i now have the chance to admire (i mean this) other versions and gee ,the sepia one (number 2) is simply fantastic .This one would also have my vote!
TFS,
Carol

Hi Liliana - your effect looks like a pen and ink which gives it an art effect.
Great Idea, like the contrast betweeen the building and cars.

Buna Lili,
frumoasa postare pentru tema.
Imi place cladirea, dar cred ca masinile alea vechi
aduc un plus de farmec fotografiei. Tare fain le-ai surprins.
Interesant efectul, imi place si varianta color.
Un WE minunat iti doresc.

Servus Lili,

Interesant efectul ales de tine, arata foarte vechi locul, intr-adevar. Imi place ca ai prins si celebrele taxiuri. Cu ultimile poze mi-ai facut pofta de revazut Londra. :-)

Weekend frumos,

Great effects Liliana. You have made this a really interesting image . I love the subject as well, it is what London looks like in my imagination. ( I will see a little of it on my way to Scotland). Great POV and composition. Very good for the theme.
Warm Regards
Wanda

Liliana the PP work makes the image very special, no matter what you used in PS. This is my favorite of the Friday theme posting that I have critiqued. The Sepia conversion is outstanding.

Dan

you have done well Liliana specially in composing the shot with the perfect POV, it doesnt matter on the textures but i like the way it is.well done.
regards,................andres

Impressive work Liliana!

It's a great shot that is enhanced by this presentation.
Well done.

jo

Hi Liliana, great addition to the theme, I like also the the treatment that you added, it suits very well the old building and the old cars.

I love the colour version too, the colours and the light is superb!

Very well done! Cheers :)

Hi Lili,
Wonderful London with old mood you conjured up with the sepia. My favourite photo. Brilliant picture. Thanks !!

Hi Lili,

Great PP work . .
Beautiful presentation . .
It's kind of painting . .
Well done

Hello Lili. Superb conversion of this building which looks like charcoal painting. Brilliant perspective in good angle and traffic in the foreground. Regards. Jusni

Hello Liliana
very interesing experiment. I must say that I prefer the color version because of the particular colors we see in London. The point of view is perfect with that building on the corner and the potted plants around the building
hanks for sharing.
Serge

Interesant efect! Compozitia e reusita, de asemenea conversia in sepia.
Trebuie sa recunosc ca imi place totusi mai mult cealalta varianta sepia. oricum ai avut o idee originala! felicitari!!!

Yes! experiment succeeded very well !!
