There are some interesting effects out there. I never really played with filters, aside from a few in Google Snapseed and, of course, I used to play with Photoshop a lot. I still haven't found an easy way to pull off sepia, though. You can do it in split toning with Lightroom, but it's not exactly easy. Your "vintage filter" seems to do a decent job, though!
I hope you don't mind, but I ran it through the split toning to see what it would look like:
It looks like your vintage filter also blurs and adds grain.
Haha, well anyway. Abby looks content, although maybe not too happy to be today's model! Nice composition, though, and great lighting for her poofy fur.
I never mind when you guys edit my photos....I always learn something. I love what you did with the smoothing out....sepia is hard to do because sometimes it ends up being too pink/reddish.
Lightroom is great for split tones too. I like how I can play with those settings as well.
The vintage filter I used was a layer not a filter....ugh...I need to change that now. I got my words mixed up. So there was a texture on the layer as well.
Thanks!!!
PS - Abbey loves the camera. When she sees me with it she poses.
