Hi Paul ... Yep, scanned from the neg. Something a little warmer than usual seemed be in order here, so greyscale was converted to RGB, which, of course, didn't change the tonality, and then I ran a sepia-toned action designed for RGB (as opposed to greyscale) images. After that I desaturated the pic as the full sepia seemed a bit strong, almost harsh. <LOL> Sharpening was kept local to minimize any contrast boost to the background, and then faded in select areas so April would remain appropriately soft, although her eyes have a slight boost compared to the rest of her face to enhance the sparkle in her eyes.
