The steam tractor is the best of the lot. Take a vintage type image and process it in sepia and it automatically looks at least 50 years older. great fun this week. I’,m going to go see what I have!

My fav is the country road.. I drive for a living and when I saw this picture it made me think about road signs.. If pictures in the mind were in sepia, road signs would still stick out in color.. We enjoy the scenery around us as we roll on down the road but road signs jump out to tell us something.. And it’s usually something pretty important, like that hard left curve coming up..

Your tulip photo is quite nice, Cee. The sepia color highlights the delicate texture of the petals and, combined with the depth-of-field, the flowers really stand out.
