ReplyDeletethe photo is beautiful prashant,i love the grains.cant help you here coz you know more than me about photography.
ReplyDeleteOm,
ReplyDeleteHere's my critique only 'coz you asked for it. :-)
It's hard to tell from the small size of the photograph but there seems to be a considerable amount of sharpening artifacts in the picture.
Here's what i would do.
1) If the photo has been shot @ high ISO, i'd add more noise to make it look grainy and give it the vintage sepia finish.
2) If your noise is under control, I would do a high key processing and overlay it over the original BnW. It generally gives good contrast with localized sharpening.
Good luck.
