Before and After - Post Processing Experiments Photo Gallery by Dan Greenberg at pbase.com

Before and After - Post Processing Experiments

This is an ongoing gallery that contains different versions of the same picture. It is a fun experiment intended to show how pictures evolve into different forms via post processing.

Update July 13, 2026: Someone recently commented on this gallery and then others did, bringing it back to Popular Galleries after not having been added to in about 15 years. I have started adding a few more much newer examples which appear at the beginning of the gallery.
