I took this photo a few years ago with my Canon AE1 SLR at the ghost town of Bannack, Mt. These wagons were used in 1856 for hauling anything from trees to build homes to anything having to do with the Great Gold Rush of that time. I used the Sepia to bring out the age of this wagon. As I walked thru this little ghost town, there were many reminders like this wagon, all around, wheelbarrows that used to carry gold, miners tools, and the old dredgers are there, along with the big dredging building. Go for a visit!!

Very nice vintage image. The Sepia works well with this image.
Looks like this wagon needs a good blacksmith, wheelwright, among others.

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind.
I like old wagons and things that reminds us of the time passed. youe did a wonderful job on this. The sepia tone is perfect and I do like the framing.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
I love the old time look to this shot, Verena. Makes me think of Gabby Hayes and dudes like that. Nice work.

Nice shot Lady V. I helped my grandfather restore such a wagon a long time ago. Thanks for the memory jogger. :o)

Hi All, if you see my initials on you latest upload you will know that I have had a good look at your photo, but at the moment, I'm getting over 200 friends a day, and I just cant keep up with you all, sorry, but I will look, but at times I wont be able to make many comments....No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
Wonderful presentation of old wagon taking me to my childhood.
Great caapture Verena.

I like the wagon very much X. I think I would have liked a less bold frame that seemed to be part of the surroundings. Just my opinion. This frame definitely draws interest to the wagon.

Such a wonderful old wagon and boy I bet it sure can tell stories. Fabulous antique looking posting and framing Verena.

I love that old wagon and the sepia works well here also. Would love to have seen more of the surroundings with the wagon...but hey...that's just me. Still a beautiful take.
