Denver Celebrates the Holidays

Uploaded: December 02, 2004 09:03:52

Description

These are the Civic Center decorations in Denver, Colorado some 40 years ago but they are still pretty much the same. Another old Kodachrome slide scanned, cleaned up and simplified in Photoshop CS. Kodachrome has met the test of time better than any other film I've used--colors are still good and true. Shot with a Leica IIIg rangefinder 35mm camera.
