Great job!, no sign of a car, a wheelie bin or yellow lines (all the things that seem to plague me when I'm looking for an ageless photo opportunity)

You have to be careful with the framing when using Nik Silver Efex because the frame actually encroaches onto the photo, and in this case may have pinched that bit of space above those wonderful spires?

Very well done Gerald!

Alf

I have to agree with Alf, a little tight at the top.

Is that a Wal-Mart?

Very nice toning giving this a vintage feel, I like how the Wal-Mart is casted in the shadows or mist which give us depth, lovely my friend 

Stephanie, Alf, Tony, thank you for the encouraging comments,

Alf, the nose of a car an A-board and two people inappropriately dressed had to be removed. You are correct about the tight crop from using the boarder. But I was torn between wanting the boarder and being too lazy to increase the canvas size before applying it, hopefully lesson learnt.

Tony, I was inspired to do this conversion of a recently taken image after seeing online a 1925 photo of Paris (Coin de la Rue Valette et Pantheon by Eugine Atget). It is a photograph of a set up very similar to my effort, with a very low contrast Wal-Mart at the end of the street.

Best regards GC.

Great scene and processing effect.

Thanks Chris.
