except for twice a day.

I posted a b/w version of this earlier. You can see it here. I added some textures (my own) and did some selective blurring to add to the atmosphere. I was attempting to show how downtown has lost its lustre in many of the cities in our country. I didn't think anyone would mind the blurring unless the man is your: grandpa, dad, uncle, husband, brother, son, nephew, cousin or some other shirt tail relative. Even then, you might not mind.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

That blurring has made the wright and wrong very conspicuous Tick. Nice work!

I remember the B&W and it was striking and this is equally so - sort of fuzzy like our memories of old times and places.

I like the old sign and clock and the blurring gives it the feel of a nostalgic memory, which is probably true for many of us...good undercover work, SOT...faved.

You gave it a kind of hand made DoF which works well!

The texture has given it a 'period era' type of color tone which makes it feel 'Olde Worlde'!

Fine work owd pal..

Nice work on this image and you effectively worked your desired feeling into it. Unfortunately, small town U.S.A. has been eaten up by the likes of Walmart.

Love the selective blurring in the image Tick. Great colours and perspective in the photo.
