This is a famous landmark in the UK, called the Blackpool Tower. Blackpool is a seaside town, famed for it’s magnificent street lights. People come for miles around to see them. It’s also known for it’s entertainment. Many well known entertainers perform there regularly. When we moved up to Yorkshire, we just had to go to Blackpool, at least once. It wasn’t really our thing. Too big and noisy, with lots of ‘Kiss me Quick’ hats, if you know what I mean :O)
Anyway, I thought it made a good sepia shot. I did some tweaking around in Photoshop to make it look old.

That’s a great shot. My mom wishes she had more time to learn more about photography, but her job keeps getting in the way.

I’d say somebody was inspired by the Eiffel Tower.
You effects certainly make this look old – nice job.

I like this very much, I tend to shy away from more muted sepia tones in my own photos but love to see it in others. I can’t figure out why! I think it’s not my palette.
