Atherton & District Amateur Photographic Society

I've just started playing with Nic and am liking some of the effects it gives. Thought I'd post 2 versions of the same shot from my weekend visit to Warton Stock cars. All cc gratefully received....

I love the Nik software and the multi effects. I like both images John but prefer the softer and older feel of the second. It just lends to the atmosphere of the image.
