Steam effects

[Gavin Miller]

Here is a shot of a friend's Kato Mikado (with Pennsy body from GHQ) I photographed on our local NTRAK club layout.

I added the smoke/steam effects in PhotoShop.

Gavin,
That's the finest example of computer inserted steam/smoke effects I've ever seen! Absolutely top notch Sir.

Here's another interesting effect you can achieve in PhotoShop.

Desaturate the image (remove colour).

Then play around with the "Colour Balance" selections to achieve a "sepia" tone and make it look like a really old photograph!
