Another cool one, Bob. Man, this brings me back to the Saturday matinees when I was a kid in the '50's.

That depicts the old west better than many a photograph. Really well done Bob.

I know what you mean Jer, those westerns were great. I kept this photo darkened, I thought it gave more of a old west town feel. thanks Bob

Nice treatment Bob. Really has that "Old West" feel to it.
Could have been taken 100 years ago - probably not with a Pentax, however!

Tim, thanks for the kinds words, the hard part of getting this photo was waiting for everyone to clear the streets, I wanted it empty. Luck had it that they announced a shootout at the other end of town and the street soon emptied. One of those right place, right time occurrences. Bob
