Some random shots of the Victorian Heritage Street Parade I watched yesterday. A peep into the past :)
Panasonic FZ28. I tried desaturating and giving a sepia tone in an effort to make them look more 'Victorian' but I think it is better left in colour.
As a matter of interest, New Zealand was the first country to grant the vote to women, in 1893 :)

A nice collage of different and interesting Victorian scenes Lyn. Every image as interesting as the others. Well done.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Good work, Eve. The Penny-Farthing is my favourite. I came across one of those in Brussels a few years ago.
