How has this photo been post-processed? I really like the washed out colors, and I'd like to replicate it on some of my own work. Thanks

who would have guessed

these are some disgusting lightroom mustard yellows (TM)
i sure hope you guys dont do this
>>2702302
Pick this point up at curve tab in your converter
>>2702316
Washed out = low contrast, lighter blacks
color balance = difference between R, G, and B channel
So, remove contrast/raise black, and play with the RGB channels until you have the balance you want.

Ok that's actually useful, thanks

Generally, if someone says "curves", and you think "that doesn't help me at all", you didn't understand curves (and possibly digital image files/histograms) enough. Read up on documentation, google tutorials, and experiment A LOT with curves, and exposure/color balance (while looking at how the histogram and the image change).

reduce vibrancy and contrast.
white balance to 4000K
Looks like mainly vibrance reduction and, a little bit of shadow/highlight recovery to me
>>2702302
Yes, it has. The contrast has been lowered dramatically. There isn't a LOT of processing, so with the right scene, you could get away with making a camera profile with the contrast turned all the way down, and getting close straight OOC.

Color saturation and virbancy decreases when contrast decreases.

this dude is right, looks fucking horrible though desu senpai
those are some big ass bananas
it's simply a layer of cross-processed film at about 70-80% transparency over the original, which has had its contrast increased but its saturation decreased to taste
it's important you keep your secondary color wheel in mind when choosing the saturation/type of your cross-processed effect so it combines over the original colors to increase vibrancy/color character the way you want (i.e. you might want to make your greens yellowish in the cross processing so they become bluer when layered with the original green, etc).

Is that a 3rd world Oscar Meyer Weiner machine?

Why is this so hard for your people?

Our "i before e" rule is fucked, and actually incorrect more often than not.

but "wiener" isn't an English word.
Why are you applying your moronic rules to it?
>>2702985
Because we all think that it is, and if we can't even learn OUR rules, why would we know German rules?
