Here is a small series from last week I've been working on. I've been trying some new develop settings in ACR, C&C welcome.

I really like the series, was the lighting that golden or did you warm them up in PP? What method did you use? Modify the photo temperature? Warming Filter?

Wow, thanks everyone for the comments.:)

All PP was done in Adobe Camera Raw. Firstly increased the temperature (a lot, around 12500) increased vibrance, decreased saturation, added heavy vignette (almost max). Then played with the HSL sliders (mostly greens & yellows) then finally a bit of split toning.

The great thing about using ACR is that once you've got one image where you want it, you can just copy and paste the develop settings to a whole bunch of images in Bridge. And of course it's non-destructive.

aside for the VW, it looks like the place is abandoned

Yes, Lisboetas only come out at night ;). Seriously if you go out to a bar at about 10pm you'll be the only one there. Go back around 1am and it'll be packed!
