LOMO effect - some expiremint...

[buzznt]

I tried to play with the LOMO effect (there is a toturiel someware in the forum) but didn't quit made it. So ai made some expriments and came out with the a set of steps.

I started with a camera not much better then the LOMO - a Nokia E51 phone - this is the original photo:

• I made the following steps:
  Adjustment -> Auto level
  Adjustment -> Brightness/Contrast -> Brightness +10
  Duplicate Layer
  Effects -> Photo -> Vignette -> Radius 0.55 (Upper Layer)
  Layer Properties -> Opacity: 159 (Upper layer)
  ** (option: Adjustment -> Black & White)
  Adjustment -> Brightness/Contrast -> B -5, C +30 (Lower L)
  Adjustment -> Hue/Saturation -> Saturation +20 (Lower L)
  Layers -> Merge Layer Down
  Adjustment -> Hue/Saturation -> Saturation +20

This is the color result:

This is the optional B&W:

I would love to here what U think and if any of them came close to a good result.

TX,
