Architecture My 1st time using clone tool.

My 1st time using clone tool. · 04:06 AM

This is my 1st time using clone tool. I used it to clear away the buildings in the backgrd.
I hope the photo is pleasing. I want to make it look like old times. I added noise, vignetting , and sepia look. I'm quite happy with the result.

What do you all think?
Original

Result

I myself feel tt the chapel is too clean and look antique

add on: i made it more yellow and added much more noise. How does it look?

I like the PP you applied, but I'm not a fan of the vignetting (not in the bottom corners anyway).

This is a very nice shot and you did a great job on removing all the buildings and trees that wre distracting from the main subject. Also, I too am not a fan of the vignetting or the noise; I feel that these are taking away from a very nice looking photo.

Did this suddenly become the "critique my photo" section?

The author of the first posts was looking for opinions, it would only be fair to give them, right?

What was stated that would help pp the photos? Nothing was accomplished other than post count.

That particular user did not like the noise and vignetting. So the original poster got feedback on his pp. I don't see what your problem is here.

THIS IS NOT THE CRITQUE MY PHOTO SECTION. I'm not trying to make a big deal out of it. Did you see the >

smiley? It was aimed at the OP as well.

Sorry I misunderstood. I thought you were solely criticising the reply.
