Hi Paul, yes all of the major PP was done using Nik add-ins in PS (as an edit-in from LR - where a slight crop was made). First was a monochrome conversion (full range, Fuji Neopan simulation, medium coffee stain, slightly increased grain : pixel). This created a new layer and I reduced its opacity to ca 80% to allow some colour to bleed through. The border was then added using Canvas Size. The other manipulations were next done using ColorFX 4 using a yellow E6/C41 CP (to push contrast a touch and keep the tones warm - I wanted to get rid of the last of the blue tones from the curtains), then a glow was added (70%) using a warm glow temperature. A vignette was then applied (with narrow edge and low opacity and centred to make it look like light falloff from the lamp) plus a curves / contrast filter to fine-tune the overall 'look'. A small amount of cloning was used to get rid of a power lead and the edge of a table that was intruding into the frame slightly (hotel room!). Once back in LR I used a couple of gradients to adjust the vignette and the file was sharpened for output using Nik Sharpener (40% Adaptive Sharpening), then exported as a JPEG for upload.
So, I hardly touched the original file all all!!
