I was feeling at the end of Photoshop Elements with this one, so I just did something simple. Gorgeous photo by the way!

Newbie here! I used picasa. I cropped it, added some shadowing and highlights and sharpened it a bit.

Thanks everyone for sharing your plays!
Here’s mine. I forgot what I did (since I did this a while ago)
I probably desaturated, warmed up, added yellow split toning and did a very subtle vignette.

Used a Lightroom preset called Matt’s Nostalgic Effect 2. Tweaked the luminance for added colour.
