Wanted to share these OLD images I grabbed recently! Used my g6 as a psuedo scanner (it was quicker) I didn't do much postwork on 'em except to crop and adj contrast a bit! Here's the first one...some ladies in front of a shop!

This is my favorite!!! I think its a double exposure. Not really sure! It has a surreal look to it...almost like the background is on fire! Don't know why this one reminds me of the Stephen King movie...CHRISTINE Hope ya liked this little "blast from the past"

L8r!

Wow, great finds! Strange to think that our photos may one day be in someone's flea market odds and ends.

i have a bunch of my grandparents photos, on both sides, that dates way back... i hope they don't end up in a flea market but sure to happen someday... a huge box of these would make great material for decoupaging something... thanks for sharing joe, i like the 1st 2 the best :]
