Subject of the challenge at Gothic Arches this week is Gypsies. I tinted this black and white photo from Flickr CRF images. The background and arch are from Irene Alexeeva, as is the music. Thanks for looking!
I can only agree with Dream with the Fishes, this is so beautiful, everything about it. I am uber impressed at your colorising. The background and frame sets off that gorgeous image superbly.
Oh Bev, she is lovely, so wistful and mysterious. The colors are simply luscious and the baroque embellishments: perfectamundo! I would give anything to know how to do handtinting, or, even better, to have YOU teach me.
Thank you for asking about my classes. Apparently I made myself heard. Not only did my schedule not change, but they added eight new and students to my two writing classes and gave me a paraprofessional to help out!!!!
So so beautiful! I just love the gypsy image and the colors you used, especially with the gold effect. You did a gorgeous job!
