For this image, I was able to do two edits:

As soon as I saw the image, I thought it was like a painting. It also looked a bit vintage-y, so with that I came up with this steps:

- Applied the Vintage Effect action.
- A pass of the Brauer's Warm script set to 25%.
- Applied the Canvas Texture set to multiply at 75%.
- Applied Kim Klassen's Yesteryear texture set to overlay at 50%.
I was actually quite happy with this one, but I thought the canvas texture was quite too strong. I actually was already writing this post when I decided to play with the image again and I came out with this:

This one, I guess is more on the vintage side. This was a very drastic edit because I edited out the houses behind. With this one, I wanted to concentrate more on the wagon. Since it was at the center of the image, I decided to take out the houses to make the image more balanced, since it had more space under.
Steps I made:
- Using the clone tool, I edited out the houses and the itty bitty details - like the electric posts, and the brown things on the lower left side of the image.
- Applied the Vintage Effect action.
- A pass of Brauer's Warm script set to 25%.
- Applied Kim Klassen's Yesteryear texture set to Multiply at 100%.
- Applied Kim Klassen's Sweettart texture set to Soft Light at 75%, just to give it a pinkish tone, since most vintage effect pictures tend to look a bit pinkish.
- Unsharp mask set to 0.75.
- Burn set to Shadow with range of 10.0 and opacity of 100%.
As always, both images were edited using GIMP. I do hope me taking out the houses was okay, I was a bit hesitant in doing that, but I still went with it.
