Wow, this looks great, love the carriage or is that a wagon, like on wagon train....oh you are probably to young to remember that. Here I go again showing my age...Sharen

Love the tone of colours use!

Very, very nicely done, although I think a photograph of this apparent age (as old as Sharen???) would be yellowed (sepia-toned) as well as faded. :)

don't let her kid ye.. Sharen's a young kid 8 ) the Conastoga looks good and the little ones are darling... nicely done jarm 8 )

Looks great... The whole thing has a really interesting quality now, not quite real, not quite fantasy, sort of like in between....

pssst Wizz...Sharen's a gramma! Don't tell her I tol' ya! :x

Pssssssssst Var, she's very very young at heart 8 ) and still younger than me I think 8 ) 8 )

Well thanks for the comments, I like how it turned out. Now about Sharen's age...didn't anybody tell you it's rude to enquire about a lady's age :-)

LOL.....the yellowed out look is great....I have a thing for pics that are like that or even black and white, they are just so cool....you did a great job....Sharen

we'd never enquire jarm 8 ) besides it's a lot more fun to just call Sharen a teenager 8 ) and cause she's such good people I'm certain she appreciates it 8 ) well.. also cause she knows that we love her too 8 ) Cheers

Yes I do know and I really love you all back...I never mind the jokes...they make me laugh, I love to laugh.

You really did an excellent job on this!

I just think it's funny that Sharen's probably half my age, but she's a granny. :D But remember, I didn't tell you that! shh! :x

Yah right Varien, half your age, I don't think so....that would make you, oh never mind, can't do that, would give away the actuall age, you know what I did find out about age? Do you all remember Mrs. Howel, from Gilligan's Island, the documentary was on tonight, she never told anyone her age until she died, she had it in her will to tell all, she was 91 when she passed, and she did Gilligan's island in in 70's or so. I think she kept a really good secret. Sharen

that'd make him twice as old as ye Sharen.. see? no problem 8 ) Aaaaaahhhh... a fine actress, and I simply cannot recall her name... she was in a few movies in the 50's very attractive both then and in the 70's 8 ) let's see... Age being mainly a marker.. I'd put Sharen at.. "old enough to know bettre but young enough to enjoy life" 8 ) I like it and once again.. beautiful render jarm I took a trip in the gallerys and saw the other versions... very nice 8 ) Cheers

Beautiful image and what a lovely theme! I love the 'old picture' feel to it as well. Talking about age, I am probably the oldest one here! Born a year BEFORE Pearl Harbour.......:) Anybody want to 'fess up as being older? :) Irene

Umm, okay. Sharen's not telling, and I'm not telling. Irene's telling entirely too much - lol! I'm just going to say I'm older'n dirt and leave it at that. :D

And I am older than mud. LOL Sharen

Well see? That makes me actually older, because dirt came before mud. I have some fond memories of beta-testing mud, trying to get the right consistency... ;)

LOL....okay we have beaten this to death....since we are both so close to that....LOL...Sharen
