Thanks JCSullivan. This group tries to keep it fairly authentic but I did clone out one wristwatch. As for your comment on the matting, you are right about the size not being optimal. All of these images were set up to print out at 14 X 11 with the matting being part of the print. If I get 50 prints done at a time they cost $1.99 each from Adorama. That size frame costs me $5.00 so the total is only $7.00. I can do the same thing with a 16 X 20 print for a cost of $14.20 including frame. For display I can cover the printed mat with a proper one and upgrade the frame but still have a low end "Ready to hang" item for the art shows I'm planning on working this next summer.

The style isn't for everyone but it does set me apart from the rest of the exhibitors. It might be a fun weekend hobby and give me a chance to meet some interesting people. Any thoughts any of you have on this plan would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ken
