Thank you SO MUCH for posting these in PSE. Seriously, I sometimes feel like the slow kid at school with so many tutorials done in CS!

Or…in either PS or PSE, adjust the color balance. Up the yellow and red until you get the shade of sepia you want. I learned that one from Heather Meltzer’s blog. Isn’t it great there are so many simple ways of getting awesome photos!

Thank you for not forgetting us PSE users. I would LOVE to have the full PS, but I cannot afford it. So again I thank you.

Another great method for PSE users is to do another adjustment layer after the gradient map layer. This time, do a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. Click the colorize box in the Hue/Saturation window. Then drag the top slider to around 25, the middle slider to around 15. That’s it . . . nice sepia tones. I learned this off Jessica Sprague’s blog, so all credit goes there.
