Well I spent a few days on the Eastern Shore photographing during the 2011 Delmarva Bike Week. I had an assignment for Hot Bike magazine and also photographed two additional bikes. I did some general coverage of the event including some of the music; found a great group Lower Case Blues, (more on that later). I also went to see Tyler and Thrill Kill Jill perform their Lucky DareDevil Thrillshow.
Anyway I came home with a bunch of images. I took this opportunity to process my photos in LightRoom which I am still exploring. There are presets for effects that ship with the application and there are more available online. This is a great resource to get started:
ProPhoto Top 10 List I downloaded some from the Adobe
ADOBE Exchange. Some are free and some you have to purchase. I've only tried the free stuff so far.
Here are some examples;

Killer Vintage Look preset |
You may need to do a little tweaking to your photos after the preset is applied but it's a great place to start and they have been lots of fun to play around with. You could get the same effects without the presets but using them as a starting point is much quicker and may give you some ideas to try that you might not otherwise think of.
