the Town Too Tough to Die
Photo Location: Tombstone AZ 
Posted By: Bob Harris, 02-22-2014, 09:46 PM

some hand-held walk around photos with editing from Tombstone Arizona. We love the Old West and always feel comfortable with the characters and crowds that attend the shootouts, quite a fun experience everyone should try.

A good storytelling series, something I would like to see in real life.

Bob, you did a hell of a great job!
You have a steady hand, I did have to immerse myself in the atmosphere of a Western!
Great.

you've probably got your plans set Kyle but if in the area this is interesting along with Fort Huachuca, Bisbee, Kartchner caverns and the wineries on the mesa above Sierra Vista

Great photos. Looks like a very interesting area. The sepia works very well here. Well done!

Wow, you still get to play cowboys and indians even when your grown up over there.

Just yet another thing I've missed out on in life.

Such fun to see these. Some of the actors are the same ones that were there when we where and it looks like a couple of them got promoted to bigger roles. There are quite a few new faces too. Thanks for taking me back.

We visit the area every three years or so EM, just a lot of fun and interesting to view an Old West town where Wyatt Earp and many others lived and died.

This is a wonderful series with a true historical feel. You really did the subject justice with a great eye and expert processing.

Yes ZZ after viewing now you must watch an old Western, maybe one with John Wayne.

I like the series, I think you did a wonderful job in PP, some of these feel as old as the town itself.

I experimented a bit with different treatments on the images to give an Old West feel to all, thanks for the kind review.
