Amazing how an overlay can create an awesome photo. I haven't tried too many snapshot type shots, though I almost did today. Maybe tomorrow, see what luck I have. It looks wonderful. I can imagine this with some colorizing on it to make it vintage 40's.

I really like the lightness and softness that overlay brings out. That edged frame is perfect with it, too.

Looks like a photograph from the '40s, nice transformation! Although the woman is lovely so even your 'snapshot' is quite nice :-)

It's long and sordid, but it's her present that's what counts. ;-)

Oh she is gorgeous. I love the way it looks so old now. IT gives it more depth and feeling, I feel like I want to know the story and her history. Fab job, well done
