Try this: with the photo open and set to RGB in mode setting, add blank layer, fill with Focoltone # 2191 from custom color pallete, set this layer blending mode to overlay. Also see the software section of this site for a description and examples of some software plug ins which will take the sepia tone look to very nice levels. Hope this helps.

Hello All,
I am looking for a good tutorial of converting a black and white photo to sepia tones. I know there are lots on the net, but I haven't found one that I like, so I thought i give it a try here and see who can tell me where I can get a very good sepia tone.
