Polish Reality taken by JK, alpha-Carole, no anybody's template, dunno who created creatures on the train. Just one photo and letters and no need more IMHO.

I tried out the blueprint technique with a local photo from Beacon, NY, of the Howland Cultural Center. It is quite spectacular in person. I'll also show the color photo.

We recently had a bit of discourse about old photos and the frequent use of cameras. This photo that I have in my files comes from the early 1900s. It is not of anyone in my family, but the family of a friend. They are using Brownie box cameras, but I don't know which edition they are. I just love the pic! Taken in my hometown.

Almost all elements come from Katie Pertiet photography kit which was on sale for $1.99 US.

Was this someone's home originally?

Ann, this one turned incredible.  Thank you Carole for putting this one in the blog, it has been a viewing pleasure to see what everyone is doing with it.

I love this Julie.  I have 7 of the box style brownies and one brick style (plus the bigger and tiny accordion type ones - there seems to be a lot of "brownie" styles).  I'm going to see if that kit is still available, I like to get anything camera related.  This is a fabulous picture of these two ladies and it's super sharp for a photo of that era.

This is a very well preserved photo that old! I find that black/white or brownish photos keep their color nuances and sharpness much better then the older colored photos that fade out over time. I have a couple of those taken by my dad when he just started to use color film, that are now beyond repair!
