I got a nice shot of a woman in Omotesando on Monday, wearing a kimono and with a parasaol. The background was not great and the colours too contrasty in the strong sunlight.
So, a little bit of Photoshop and we have something quite different. This is uncropped from the original.

Black and white/toned effect in Photoshop, with edges faded like an old glass plate. Then faded back to let some of the colour through.
Worthy of the processing effort, this is a beautiful image.

I love the mystery behing this shot. The processing is quite different from what you usually do, but equally beautiful.
