You can add some film grain for more oldish effect too.

You can try by create new layer, give a film grain, then blend it with overlay. And after that, you can give gaussian blur about 1.2 Before you flatten, you can adjust the bightness/contrast of that layer

Hello Yan
Quebec offers so much to a photographer, you are very lucky.
This is a great composition and the rendition in mono is perfect

Elegant and timeless archetectural sepia shot Yan!
Perfectly composed and unique POV
gives us focus on the windows.
Great work,

Bonjour Yan,
Point de vue et plan rapproché tout à fait pertinents! Excellente conversion en sépia qui met bien en valeur ces vieilles pierres. J'aime beaucoup cette juxtaposition de lignes et de plans entrecroisés qui offrent un visuel fort intéressant. Bravo! Annie

Hi Yan,
Je préfère la version publiée qui a l'air moins artificielle, juste hors du temps. Le dégradé du foncé de l'extérieur vers le clair de l'intérieur lui donne de l'âge. Beau travail,
Ivan

Hi Yan,
This is a strong composition, I love the antique look of it. Great angles, shadows and depth in the photo, it makes an interesting colored shot more dramtic. Thanks for sharing!

Fran
PS-I was wondering why all of a sudden there were so many sepia toned photos, lol!

A very impressive view Sis
Good use of contrast.. there is a lot of 'dramatique' in your photo..
so we start thinking of : Old English ghost houses
( there us one in the mid little window in snow )

Bonjour Yan
Très belle présentation de la place royal avec ses vieux bâtiments. Je suis un adepte du noir et blanc et avec l'ajout de la petite teinte de sépia comme ici et bien pour moi c'est un festin visuel. Merci

Paul

je préfère ta présentation en sépia, que veux-tu je suis vieux......(°U°)

An excellent result Yan with just enough sepia tone. The coloured version is great but I prefer this version over the other sepia. Good POV and lovely detail. TFS,
David

Many thanks for your comment on ‘Holy Trinity - old building sepia’

Hello Yan,
This really seems like an amazing building, almost in the castle class!
I like the framing going close on the building, fine details have been captured...
The touch of snow tells the story of the season!
Greetings,

J'adore cette composition bien serrée. les textures sont superbes. Éclairage sombre est dramatique. Un beau voyage dans le temps !
Chapeau bien bas Madame!

hello,
very "warm" shot on its colors, even if it was probably really cold! really nice shot.
Regarding your workshops, my prefered version is the sepia one; colors version is less charming, and the intermediary is not, my view, interesting.
