Monochrome from Colour & Split Toning

[Meerkat17]

I came across a tutorial for converting to Monochrome from Colour - OK I hear you say nothing new in that.... the tutorial went further and showed how to add a sepia tint then went even further and dealt with "Split Toning"

The image below is one which I've produced as a split tone and feel that its not a bad effect - anyhow, I thought I'd share it. If anyone has any comments I'd be pleased to hear them.

The tutorial can be found at:

Thanks David! I've been trying to play around with sepia toning and duotone and I'm not being very successful at either....altho duotone confuses me a little more only because I"m not sure what a successful photo looks like when duotone is applied....
I do have a question with sepia toning - once you get the sepia tones correct, how would you go about getting that faded/blurred effect old photo's sometimes have ?
