I looked at some old Sepia postcards of the Sioux Falls taken around the early 1900's and thought I'd try to duplicate one here. I gave my shot a sepia tone and eliminated most the modern day structures nearby, and I think I came fairly close. (Save for some erosion that more than likely occured since then..lol) Thanks for all your comments and input. Much appreciated!

This turned out very well, Dan. Is this a rework of your "Frozen Falls" upload? It looks similar, perhaps cropped? I like the effect very much and you also did a great job of removing the modern-day images from the background. I remember my grandmother having these types of postcards around stored up in her attic (along with all the other old stuff she used to save) some with what looked like crayon coloring here and there. This certain gives the rocks a very smooth, rounded look. More, please :)

It worked very well. I first thought, you really scanned one, but wondered, why it is still without any signs of age. Very good job done!

I would be happy, seeing you in my galerie. Today I've posted Roosevelt Place (2)
I really like how you gave this image that old-fashioned look Dan. I remember going through my grandparents old sepia images & was always fascinated by them. You did a great job here Sheriff Dan ... your talent really shows on this one.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

As long as I can remember, I've had amnesia.
Excellent picture. I really like the sepia effect. Looks like an old postcard.

Saw this in VB and my first thought was: the sepia makes it look like an old timey picture. Could be 100 years old. T'rific!
