    Nice one, Gary. I like the contrast on the subject being old style and yet the featured movies are totally in time. :D The processing also compliments the subject very well. Very well done! thumb.gifthumbthumb.gifthumbthumb.gifclap.gifclapclap.gif
    Sitting quietly, doing nothing. Spring comes and the grass grows by itself.

    Hi Azzaro,
    I find your shot so bizarre--very "twilight zone". I'm waiting for a tumbleweed to roll by or a zombie as the place looks almost abandoned.

    I like the old movie theatre and would not mind catching a flick there, it's just a shame that it's subjected to showing "Mr. Popper's Pinguins".

    This could well be a postcard or a poster--I really like it :D.

    Hi Lizz.......Willcox was the center of the cattle production in the country. There was a time when the streets were dirt and full of cowboys and cattle.

    THanks for looking and the nice comment.......:Dgary
