into an old photo, one that looks like it was taken many years ago. Automatically

blacks and darkening whites. Vintage Scene is easy to use but gives the user control to
change each component for a unique look on each photo. Includes hundreds of possible
combinations, a visual preset system, and the ability to create your own presets for re-use.
