This is from some engagement pictures that I took a few weeks ago.

Nice photo. Thanks for sharing. I'm sure the happy couple will treasure these pics for years to come.

After applying a Curves adjustment for a little more contrast and blurring the background a little I thought this one had possibilities as a black and white...

I started with the L channel (from a RGB to Lab conversion) and, using layer masks, added bits and pieces from copies of Red, Blue, Green, and Black channels.

My attempt with ahb.

Thank you for sharing this photo Klautt, I think more than one visit will be required for this :)

First I embossed the lovely couple, then gave them a hotwax coating, and added a couple drop shadows.

What a lovely picture to commemorate their beginning; thank you for sharing Klautt. Very nice renditions here. I love the inset within yours, Palms.

Looks like it could be the happy ending scene to a romantic movie.

I've been playing with sketching and ahb and thought Klautt's photo would be a good one to practice on.
