Finn Slough 1885

This was fun. As I’m sure you already guessed, it’s not really 1885, I took the photo this afternoon while walking my dog. Finn Slough is a tiny fishing village established in the 1880’s by Finnish fishermen so I decided to try and make the photo look as if it had been taken back then. I used Analog Efex Pro, a part of the venerable Nik Collection, and fooled around with various textures and overlays until I thought it looked about right. Maybe I overdid it a little but I was having fun.

Fooled me! I definitely thought it was a very old shot. Beautiful work, Chris.

Nice processing. What a great sight filled with photo opportunities. (Wanted to make sure you got my email regarding setting up challenges?)

@amyk I don’t see it in my inbox Amy. I just double checked. Could you try sending it again. Thanks

That's really cool processing, well done, glad you had fun too. I like what looks like a finger print in the right hand corner.

Great job with the processing. The outboard motors give the game away :))

[Mags]

Beautiful processing! I think the power lines would date it though. =)
