This week's sepia highlights a piece of wooden inlay art that my daughter-in-law purchased on a business related trip to India. This means the picture you see isn't painted but made up of little pieces of wood. In reality it is mostly sepia toned except for a bluish tone to the sky.I used my photo software to apply a cross-processing effect to the image. It is supposed to resemble a photo effect from the 60's. Cross processing is the procedure of deliberately processing photographic film in a chemical solution intended for a different type of film. I like the yellow golden effects.
This is the original photo I used before processing. I took this in low light without a flash. I kept getting the glare from the flash so I changed the camera settings so the picture wouldn't reflect the flash.
This is the true color of the art piece.For more sepia scenes click here.

What a wonderful photo. I don't even or couldn't even begin to do this with a photo. It's so good great too look at and see the differences. Excellent my friend. Have a great day :) Aloha
How nice this artwork looks. What the individual pieces of inlaid wood does is gives this picture the feeling of depth and texture. I like the edits you performed, the sepia tones giving the look of an artist not bound by color but texture alone. And any of the three pictures a treat on a blank white wall, like in a gallery...
I like all three pictures. Very creative, Carletta. I wish I knew how to do more than aim and shoot.
I reallllly like that true color art work! That is beautiful! It amazes me what people can do with inlay! Oh, the PATIENCE it must take! Absolutely gorgeous! The effects you used are nice too... but I like the original the best!
awesome art work and great technique.
I like every picture! It is a beautiful piece!
Inlaid art work must be so time-consuming. This is a interesting piece depicting the elephants' gathering spot. ;-)
I like what you did with the photo. It sounds involved!
Happy Sepiafying
very interesting art and you did a good job with your sepia changes too!

Beautiful artwork. And I must say again how much I enjoy your music. I listened to it while I typed up minutes for a meeting and it made an annoying job bearable! :)
I like what you did with the original photo. I think inlaid art is beautiful and your photos truly captured that beauty.
that turned out wonderful in Sepia...you gave me an idea about something carved I have a picture of...
Thanks for showing all three photos. It's interesting to see the original piece, and then the changes you made to the photos. I like the final outcome.
so lovely and intricate. If you’d like to drop by and see my sepia scene & window views, they are here. thanks!
I love all three versions... what a beautiful piece.
Wow, the picture was really beautiful and intense!
Thank you for your comment at my blog!
I have always had a soft spot for things that show safari animals. This is a great picture in sepia. I almost looks more natural in the sepia tone than in the colored photo.

I like the first and last photos the best.
And a beautiful piece of art, it is!!!
Your processing just keeps getting better and better Carletta. You have an innate artist's talent for understanding and using colour. Excellent.
