Tried to make this photo look older while brining focus to the guitar. I've only recently started dabbling in more creative post-processing methods. Let me know what you think.

the pp works great for the style of photo. the crop feels slightly cramped but I think it's otherwise a great shot.

Whoa! This isn't the usual abstract physchadelic stuff that pervades many photo forums.

This image is definitely a wall hanger. It is port folio quality. Has all the ingredients that make an occupational portrait work.

Good job!

Cheers,
MJ

I like it a lot but I would try lowering sharpness by just 1 notch. I feel like there are line artifacts in the hair and subject outline due to oversharpening. However, if that's what you're going for, keep it!
