Thank you Jodi. #7100144

Wow - cool effects Dale - at first I thought this was a photo of a painting. Love her expression and your composition! #7100148

Dale Hardin January 28, 2009

Thanks Debbra. Here is a copy of the original photo. The re-enactment was over for the day and all the participants were getting ready to eat and camp on the site for the evening. I was the only non participant in the area at the time. #7100292

Dale, you did a wonderful job on this. #7102007

Dale Hardin January 29, 2009

Thank you Marcel.

Just visited your gallery again and WOW, you've been busy. Your new "Flight 1" is fantastic and you know how I like car pix. "Fabulous Fleet wood" was great but "His and Hers" blew me away. Excellent work. #7102250

thank you Jodi. Remember how in the past I've mentioned how many images have another image "hidden" within them? This was a good example of an "OK", but not outstanding shot, that still had some life hidden away.

It pays sometimes to go over old shots and look at them with fresh eyes. #7102257

This is a terrific shot Dale. The picture is a story teller. Tough to believe that it was taken at a re-enactment. A complete and wonderful look. I love it! #7120011

Thanks Norm. I knew you would like this. #7121683

Great vintage feel to this which is something I like very much. Sounds as though it was a fun day! #7189374

Thank you Sian. This was my first attempt at this. I like what you did with "Glastonbury" and the white specks etc. Also am fascinated with your pencil drawing work. I see I have a long, long way to go. #7190915

Excellent image Dale, you did a superb job of re-creating the old and worn look. I can see why this is one of your favorites. #8813734

Thanks Tony. I feel this is the most successful of my "vintage" attempts to date. #8813955
