Creative Photography

Well, here we go again. :D Roger's Creative Photography Contest is going on - there are some great photographers/editors participating, so be sure to go check it out!


For those of you wondering, I changed the original to sepia, then poster edged it.

Country people tend to consider that they have a corner on righteousness and to distrust most manifestations of cleverness, while people in the city are leery of righteousness but ascribe to themselves all manner of cleverness. ~~Edward Hoagland

Sepia tones really fit this style of architecture so well. Its says its been there a while. This is a great photo.

This is a great photo and I agree about the Sepia tone! Love it!

Sephia makes it look vintage, which in this case suits this picture and it's architecture :)
Good luck with the contest!! :)

Sepia is one of my favorite edits to.
Nice job Lori, thank you for your Creative Photography submission.

I love this photo, it reminds me of the old buildings (late 19th century era) that are on our Main Street! I also love the sepia tone you used.



Good luck in Roger's contest, Lori!

You sure there's not a horse and buggy just the otherside of the frame?

Great image!

Lovely photo and it looks great in sepia. Your quote is wonderful too and suits the photo to a "t".

Daryl said...

It works nicely with that colorization

Considering the quote what I like the best is how the photo

looks vintage yet could be a street from today

could be a small town main street or a crowded group of buildings on a city street

great versatile shot!

The black & white feel of this photo makes it feel so vintage. With the patriotic bunting on the windows, it looks like it could be a campaign stop of someone like Grover cleveland or Wm. McKinley in the 1890s. No cars emphasize that.

The subdued tones make it retro in a subtle way, and I like it!

I'm late getting here from last week's contest (it was a hectic week!) but I did want to pop by to check out everyone's entries.

I've got to agree with Ralph on this one, the sepia tone most definitely makes this picture look vintage - almost like a post card from the early 1900's in a big city.
