Some Fun With Old Photos
Above is the old Pinal County Court House, the main image from 1938, the Gold Wing image is my 2002 Gold Wing photographed there about 2008. I've passed the court house countless times now and stopped periodically to photograph it alone or often with a bike in front of it. It seemed like combining the pictures would be fun so I did. I've seen it done around the 'net with various historic pictures so I thought I should try my hand.

That turned out really great.
I always enjoy seeing the meshing of old and new photos.
Nicely done.
Doug, great work combining two eras in monochrome and colour. It's given me a few ideas of my own.
