Photographer’s Note

Not a very busy time at the Post Office at Sovereign Hill historic park in Ballarat.
All of the buildings here were either originals moved on to the site or authentic reproductions.

Hi there and welcome to TE,

A good choice with the B&W here, really gives the feeling of age.

Regards, Davy

Hi John!

I like both pictures you posted on this historic park! It's a pity they are both quite 'soft', even this one. In a sense that is natural for film being scanned, but still I think it's softer than it needs to be, being scanned...

But I like the subject, and in both cases a good composition! Yesterday's picture was quite overexposed, but it added to the old-feel to it.
Thanks for sharing and welcome to TE!!

Greetings, Dennis

PS: Like that people still comment 'good choice with the B&W here', indicating they are truly digital. Black and white wasn't a post processing choice in your case ;-).

Hi John,
The scene of the old village post office looks entirely believable. B&W fits well with the ambience. Good tight framing, and I like your title.
