    All effects done in camera (No PS at all.) Rotated the zoom ring at low light to get the effect and cropped slightly on RAW conversion. Took several attempts to get the effect I was looking for.

    Both old and modern...before you can speak or anything else, touch is used as a form of communication. In this case, I think it says, "I Love You".

    An actor dressed in colonial period clothing contrasts with a modern day on-lookers' style. I can only wonder what our forefathers would have thought...what a difference 87,000 or so days make (240 years).
