Aged and old looking

 The Great Train Robbery 

 This photo is one of my favorites to come out of Photoshop Elements. I started with a color image and converted it to B&W.  Then a sepia/golden texture layer was added at 20%.  Notice how it filled the sky with a golden color.  Afterwards I layered with solid color in a darker sepia tone at 80%, normal mode. 

Next, I came in with a 1/4" border in a darker brown set to 80%.  One level up I brought the black down a bit in a levels layer to take a bit of harshness out of the train.  Another texture was added that has both the horizontal and vertical strokes giving the photo a look of "graininess" at 17%.  This texture had a blue and green cast to it which I left alone.

I know. . . . it sounds like a lot of fiddling but it's worth it to get a result like this one.

Oh. . . . and those aren't really train robbers.  The baseball cap on the young one gives it away!
