 Just thought this had a Victorian feel, although they never showed emotion in those days. Partially because the photographer had to take a long time and it was easier to get focused shots if the people just sat very still and didn't smile.

Did some work with Silver Efex Pro, a grunge layer and played with some Victorian border brushes. :~) This is Nora again.

You accomplished your goal! Actually, this almost reminds me of old Gerber baby shots :-)

LOL, they never showed emotion. Wonder how they persuaded babies to do the poker face? Might be that the reason why old family portraits often have a totally blurred out baby is coz they couldn't. This does have great antique feel to it though.

Can you imagine trying to take a picture of a baby in those days?! Much more fun with the toys we have.
