i dont know how you would do that with an actual photo process, i would guess that it would involve some kind of filters.





that being said, by looking at her other pictures, i am almost positive that was done by adding a dark blue exculsion layer over the original picture in photoshop.





all you have to do make a dark blue fill layer and set it to exclusion. here are a couple of examples i just did.

i should mention, you are going to get a different result pretty much every time depending on the colors in the original picture and the shade/intensity of the exculsion layer. they all look pretty similair though. hope that helped :) i think this process is a lot easier than whatever you would have to do manually with a camera
Reply:I actually dont know what effect u want but i m sure Google Picasa(we can download it free here http://angle-mine.blogspot.com ) can do it for u.
Reply:As a photographer as well as a writer I'd say this appears to be what is called 45-degree Lighting or Rembrandt Lighting. It's usally done by a window with the subject turning their face slowly toward the camera as to slightly darken one side of the face. Appears to be shot with a soft lens as well.





Check out Rembrandt lighting...
Reply:PJ M has the lighting part exactly right.





I think you were asking about the color shift and reduction in color saturation.





All that can be done in Photoshop by playing with the color and hue settings.





Someone who graduated from RIT may have the answer. Color shifts while developing film can be caused by changes in pH, over use of chemistry without replenishment and other things
