 I've always liked the way photographers take a modern photo and make it look older. I would have liked to learn how to use overlay also but editing would not allow it.

I learned different tricks from these links:

Does have the look of a faded photo -- most obvious in the shadows and greenish tones.

I might have picked a different subject for the technique, like an old car or someone dressed in old style clothes.
