1837 Pioneer Homestead

Another addition to my "Touch of History" folder, which is more of a

personal collection, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Nice...looks like an old litho or something... Good leading line from the fence to the cabin.. If I had to nit pick something....the vignette is a bit strong for my tastes....

This is just something I do for myself for fun. I like to collect images of these old structures and give them an antique look. I have a straightforward b&w of this just about finished and should be uploaded soon. Thanks for looking!

Very wise choice of tones Tim, they suit the subject a treat!

Fabulous old place Tim! Nice B&W tones, and excellent composition. I'd second the vignetting comment though.

All the best,

Neil

Very lovely presentation, it looks like a pencil drawing. I like also other pictures of this series

Well framed image, the fence leads in towards the cabin taking the eye with it. The toning works perfectly in this snow landscape. Very well produced and presented.

I have a lot of fun doing these, glad you like them!

I like this one but I hope that you do not mind if I added some color to it. What do you think. I warmified it. I think that sepia can be to faded sometimes. Let me know what you think. cher..

 

 

Thanks for the comments! For these particular shots, I've been using pretty much a basic predetermined vignette/toning technique for all the photos in that series (see my "Touch of History" folder). Your rendition is a little to strong for my taste, although it could be a difference in monitors, but I really appreciate that you took the time with my photograph. That's a compliment in itself. I need to get over to your port, it's been too long.

Beautiful composition and style . Congratulations ! Dan
