Vintage Tunnel. by darrenboyj

Vintage Tunnel.

Thought I would have a go at this week's technique challenge which is vintage in modern.

This was another shot from yesterday's early morning walk along the canals which start here from the Netherton Tunnels.
I've posted various images of these tunnels over the months and having seen this challenge immediately thought it would lend itself well to a vintage edit. I'm pretty sure this picture and it's contents wouldn't have changed much since it's inception on 20th August 1858.

A mighty thanks for everyone who posted comments and left a fav for yesterday's picture. I am completely overwhelmed by the response it has received and woke this morning to find it had climbed into the top 10 of the popular page. Apologies for not thanking each and every one of you personally - it is very much appreciated though.
Wonderful reflections and great use of the banks of the canal to act as leading lines.

What a great thread you started a discussion on, and so interesting to see the many ways you have photographed and processed the images taken from one place! This one communicates that feeling of "long ago" photo so well.
