Hand painted look?
Not sure if this works, but with these Steamfest shots below I was trying to emulate the old hand painted colour over black and white look. I'd be interested in feedback on these.

Re: Hand painted look?
My father would have been proud of these Peter. He was a photographic hand painter way back when

Re: Hand painted look?
I really like #2 Peter, very nicely done
Re: Hand painted look?
1 And 3 for me Stubbsy. Great compo Nice effect as well these
have that old school painted or re-colourised look to them Cheers Jethro shoot it real.
look! and see. Shoot and feel
Re: Hand painted look?
Peter,
The second one is my favourite. The only thing that makes it not look like it was hand painted is how colourful the roofs of the houses are. I don't think a hand painter would have gone to that much trouble.
Re: Hand painted look?
Peter,
The first and last are my favourites. They came out beautifully. I love the perspective and treatment. Well done! Alex
Re: Hand painted look?
The hand painted look has been applied subtly Peter and enhance the images you have presented. I like #1 but in a way I can't work out whether the gantry distracts more than it enhances the scene and the context. I'm left wondering how different the image would look if the rail gantry weren't there bisecting the house in the distance. Perfect world angle i guess. Like what you have done either way
 cheers marco
Re: Hand painted look?
Thanks for the feedback one and all. I think I need to play with this technique a little more, but I think I've ALMOST got it down pat.
Wonder no more. Below with no house, less wires and no happy snappers on the road thanks to a little help from the clone tool   Peter

Re: Hand painted look?
Ah, now your talking Peter.
Looks much better to my eye. More importantly what of the artists eye? cheers marco
Re: Hand painted look?
Love them... Might be a good idea to clone out the bright spot in the foreground from your edited picture
Re: Hand painted look?
Damn - you'd think I'd have noticed that myself  Peter
