How do you get this "effect" ?

Hi Jose, which "effect" are you talking about ? Are you talking about the 4 persons in the background ? If so, there is not effect, it is just the result of the deapth of field (shot taken with a 75-300mm, same ghost impression on the RAW file). Otherwise, as this shot was taken with very harsh light conditions (as it still can show by the way) I have just used basic Adjust Lighting > Shadows/Highlights and Brightness/Contrast in PS (this is approx the only thing I know to use in PS... for now at least as I plan to develop my skills in there after the "revelation" I got with Ton reworking one one my photo!...). I hope you like the end result anyway ! Thanks for stopping by, Loic

very good street photo, with very funny with her "hot lips" expression in the main girl in the photo. Very good control of the DOF and very good composition also.

I'm envious

Everything works here - clarity, texture, lighting, contrast, DOF, B&W conversion and even the frame (and usually I prefer no framing.) Well done, Loic!
