    Excellent photo Craig. Composition and BW conversion really nice. thumb.gif
    Feel like I could still be toweling off after dumping my shaving water.
    While keeping an eye on the meal and contemplating which aftershave.

    Someone went through a lot of thoughtful effort to get the details together in
    this depiction. :D Michael

    Hey Craig,

    Very, very nice. Got a real winner here. I'd vote for giving this one a little wall space.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Howdy Michael,

    Thanks so much, this wagon really had re-created a space in time, everything was just right, it was all very well done.
    Take care,

    Howdy You,

    Thanks very much, funny enough, I don't have any of my images on the wall except

    62900196.jpg

    Jack and His Shadow is one of my very favorites:D
    Take care,

    Craig,

    Well, I don't blame you for hanging Jack and his shadow. That's an outstanding picture. But I'll bet that you got quite a few others that warrant wall space as well. As you know, I'm sure, you better own the bank when you go to framing all you want to hang. It got so bad with me that my brother and I opened a small custom framing shop. He is retired and wanted something to do and I was looking for relief from spending a fortune on framing and matting. Now I've got a rebellious wife telling me that I'm going to have to buy her a bigger house if I add one more picture.

    Howdy Tom,

    Laughing.gif, I do have a "Few" more favorites but just seem to be lazy about getting them up on the wall.

    I like that, needing a new house for more pics, that's a good one, I am just glad my Wife doesn't check these forums:D:D:D
    Take care,

    I really like this one Craig clap.gif
    Besides turning it to B&W, did you apply a filter to it?

    Looks like you stepped back in time to take this one,
    nicely done clap.gif ... Skippy :D

    Howdy Skippy,

    Thanks so much, it was a really neat event, it's always such a wonderful time when the Wagons come to town, you can smell the Mesquite Fires for a long way off.

    On the processing, I have been piddling with Topaz Software, it's like Lucas Arts/MediaChance. I really like the control over the image processing, and the ease of use.
    Take care,

    Craig

    Very beautiful images, definitely wortht of wall space. Don't beat yourself up too bad about not having your images on your wall. I've had five other photographers work on my walls and finally put up some of my own. It's only taken me three years to do it. Laughing.gif
