Good old-fashioned looking photography makes a good sepia print. I intend to use either people or an antique as my subject. Old looking subjects might look better with sepia toning because sepia toning enhances the antique look. I liked my sepia prints, but I could've burned in some of the really light parts of the photographs. I liked the over all look of them though.

Hand colored prints
Precise hand coloring is what makes a good hand colored print. I intend to use things or people in Washington, DC as subjects. I intend to only color pieces of the images. I liked my hand colored print of the little girl, but I did not like the one of the tractor. The yellow was too bright in the tractors lights and the orange faded too much. I thought I accurately represented the color of the little girl's face, hair, and eyes.
