Re: [Leica] Steamboat Natchez in the fog

Adam, the shooting was a quick thing, as Jeffery and I were about to catch a
streetcar after a long day.  Actually, I shot two frames, one closer up and
this one.  I thought I would like the other better, but when I studied the
scans, this turned out to be my favorite.  I used Photoshop's sepia action,
and when it was finished, I lowered the opacity of the sepia layer so it
mixed  with the lower color layer, so there's just a hint of color there.

I have recently been working to preserve a collection of antique steamboat
pictures at the Cammie G. Henry Research Center, and I thought this fit
right in with the style.  If you're interested in the pictures from the
Dellmon collection, you can see them here.
