Chinatown Vintage 2016

Single Shot #21

There are a number of tools that a photographer can use to process an image for a certain look. Most of my images undergo a light touch processing using Lightroom as I shoot in the raw format. Recently, Google offered their Nik collection of image processing tool for free and I was experimenting with some of them. The image below was processed using Analog Efex Pro which gave a classic camera feel to the image. Gone are the clinical sharp details and near perfect colour balance of a digital file.
