I am usually against manipulation but in this case the 5 samples are simply superb.
Make more experiment and if something look bad, I will be the first to tell it

Oh I've done this on 2 pictures. Very Happy



and



I am all for it when it suits the picture. I am not found of the massive amount thats started to surface on flickr etc though. Almost as common as HDR these days.

I was intruiged to learn that it was done in the darkroom before aswell though. I wish to know more about the darkroom technique. As far as I understand, it was done using slide film and develop it as normal film and adding some brown tones to it or something. I did not get it properly explained, my sister in law used to do it in school appearently.

It's like a found set of faded old slides, and that's the appeal, I suppose.
It's ok, for a while.

Crossdressing is a silly word.

I know - there's no point in getting dressed crossly; you'd end up with terrible colours and shoes on the wrong feet. Much better to dress in a calm frame of mind.

Let me see if I have this straight: if you take off clothes you have less on,
and if you put on clothes you have...I think I got it! Laughing

Seriously though, why can only males crossdress? Every day I see women in typically male clothing. Yet they are not crossdressers.
