«Old Photo» applied

#### 12.6.3. Options

Рисунок 17.267. «Old Photo» options

Defocus

  If checked, a Gaussian blur will be applied to the image, making it less clear.

  Рисунок 17.268. Example for the «Defocus» option

  Defocus enabled

  Defocus disabled

Border size

  When you choose a border size > 0, the Fuzzy Border filter will be applied to the image, adding a white, jagged border.

Sepia

  If checked, the filter reproduces the effect of aging in old, traditional black-and-white photographs, toned with sepia (shades of brown).[11] To achieve this effect, the filter desaturates the image, reduces brightness and contrast, and modifies the color balance.[12]

Mottle

  When you check this option, the image will be marked with spots.

  Рисунок 17.269. Example for the «Mottle» option

  A plain white image mottled (without Defocus or Sepia)

Work on copy

  If checked, the filter creates a new window containing a copy of the image with the filter applied. The original image remains unchanged.
