Good morning from a cold but sunny Hastings morning.
All week I have been posting photos from the Art Deco Weekend. I seemed to have taken photos to suit all the prompts this week. And this photo for Cee’s challenge is no different.
Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Wheels
I actually don’t mind the lady sitting in the front as she gives some idea as to how big this old steam engine is.
I gave it a light sepia tone to it to give an aged feel after I had added some grunge affects with Fotor to blur out the background.
Thanks for visiting
Wow! That was a great idea to show the figure in the image-it really does give the viewer some context to work with-love the sepia tones!

Thanks so much. I was going to just show the black and white but it didn’t look right so just used the sepia version. I just used a soft touch of the sepia as to not overpower it. I wanted a more faded look about it.

I didn’t realize it was a lady until you said. It is huge. I like sepia. I even like to say it. 🙂
“How do you do. My name is Sepia.” LOL

I really like the woman being in the image for the context of size.

Thanks. I didn’t want to spoil the affect by asking her to leave. But then photography means showing what you see. If you know what I mean.

Raewyn, I love how you’ve processed this image! And as others have said, having the woman in the photo works really well. I never would have guessed the tractor was that big!
