I don't see anything really special about this image other that it appears to be a scan of a print or negative. What is it that you want to apply to one of your images.


My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

It says its originally a B&W film. If true, its been artificially coloured so the result is entirely down to personal choice.

The toning. I was aiming for someone giving me a hint about which channel to play with.

If you have ACR/Lr you can start by over warming the image and then pulling down the saturation on the yellow channel. Then pull up the bottom of the tone curve just a smidgen and add some clarity. This is one of those things I find quicker in Lr. If you want to do it with curves you'd have to remember that lifting a channel boosts it's color, while pulling down swings to it's opposite. So pulling down on blue will introduce yellow. ;)

Capital. Thanks, I'll start there. I was thinking of the split toning controls, but your way looks better.
