Just getting used to my new lens and camera. These are of my youngest and middle son. All natural light. Can anyone recommend a sticky or recipe on duotone?

    I like the first one alot - it's a nice natural pose.
    It's better if he kept his mouth shut, the partial grin doesn't work for me.
    I think a slight boost in saturation would also work.

    I have to ask why you would want to mess with duotone, I don't think the effect adds anything to yound people - imho, the second shot doesn't work - it's very flat, it's a nice pose but I think colour would be better.

    but anyway, to answer your question, try this...

    Duotone, huh?

    That first shot has gorgeous skin tone and detail. It's lovely.

    Here are some links on duotones.
