portraits Old Portrait Of A Little Girl

This is certainly not a masterpiece in any regard, but I still likethe mood of the thirties, forties or fifties (depends on the country)and, yes I made that mood on purpose for sometimes it looks to me thatthe value of a good souvenir photograph is undeniable!

Thank you foryour attention dear colleagues!

I like the frame, Pierre! It takes me back to my mom's and dad's pictures. We even had that cutting instrument. I am going home January 15th and going to go through mom's album....Thank you. Best regards, Tamara

Beautiful old time memories, when we were young, Pierre. Nothing can change this. Very well done. I like the tonality and texture. Regards.

really lovely.  is it old?  (not sure when you might have been using Agfachrome)  it seems to be from your description, but there is something quite modern about the girl.  best, jamie

Excellent work, Pierre. If you didn't describe how did you make it, I would be sure it's scan of very old photo.

Regards.

Great job, Pierre, take us back to our lovely old times.  Well done! Happy New Year! Mari

Честита Нова Година Пиер

Обожавам черно бели стари снимки. Те не са просто снимкки а магия която те пренася през времето и те кара да се чувстваш по толкова...различен начин. И този вълнообразен начин по който ги изрязваха преди време...носталгия.

Благодаря ти за коментара на последната ми снимка. Винаги ме окуражаваш. Благодаря 

Pierre, She has the critical and observing eyes of a photographer. I think that remains troughout the years. Regards Marco

Helio Piere, Excellent portrait, great job! With my best, Tina

My good friend Pierre,

I adore film imagery.

I find the "older" look to be nostalgic, indeed.

An outstanding example of the value of a photograph of any age, with any camera/lens .

Grand memories

All the best in 2012,  Uncle Mike

So lovely!!

Beautiful and very nostalgic portrait !

Hello Pierre,

Wow this is nostalgy for me, not only because of the old look and feel ( I was born in the sixties), but you took this with an Canon AE-1 this was my first camera, which I sold while living in Japan.  Something I still regret.

It might not be a masterpiece but it is not a bad picture at all.  There is the soft light in the shadow, which gives good exposure and light.  The only thing which disturbs me are the orange areas on the fingers.  Something which is easy to correct with your ps skills.

Superb antique look you've created in this excellent image Pierre!

All the best,
Neil

The frame is certainly a nice touch. But, it is the toning and aging achieved through the grain that gives the image its sense of authenticity.

sensitive and expressive, with interesting conjectural possibilities...

Dall'album dei ricordi...: una belissima immagine carica di emozioni. Bravo ed eclettico come al solito il mio caro amico Pierre!

Very nice work, best regards.

great portrait very nice old treatment

Interesting work, really feeling the "old image"!

Makes me want to dig those old photographs in our cellar. Nicely done.

Regards, Pierre

Nice picture. Best regards,
