Three Muses Challenge - Sepia

 
This is a photo of my granddaughter.  It was originally a colour photo but I have had some fun tweaking it with a lot of filters and effects to achieve (I hope) a rich sepia feel.  The added timely elements are from Irene Alexeeva.

I really like the composition of your entry, Marie.
The layering effect of the images gives it a timeless feel.
Two thumbs up!

You've certainly achieved the rich sepia feel, Marie, a brilliant photo doesn't have to be 'face on' and this is one those!

Keep cool!

The rich sepia tones, time elements and 'Once Upon A Time' seem to suggest a wistful passing of time, which I love. A very striking and stunning piece, Marie, and one for the family history file me thinks.
