Hi Deb - I liked your idea here. I think the black background actually detracts from the picture. It's too harsh of a contrast. Since you are going for an old-time feel here, I would like to have seen this on a lighter table, maybe wood even, and then gone sepia. And then tone down the grain a tad, since the paper is already old. Also, I would have liked to have seen the sharp focus on the foreground rather than the background. Not a bad placement for a challenge this large! :o) |

This is an incredibly awesome message. The major flaw I see is that the grain/ noise in the photo is a strange color. I pick up some greens and pinks in the grain, making this very important letter looks strange.
Edit - I would recommend trying this is B/W and using sepia (coloration of the b/w image) to bring out the old feel of it. |
