    G’day Phillip,

    Oh yeah!
    Your “mucking around” has worked very well indeed. This sepia has a really good tonal range and the added contrast has helped model the horses and plowman very well.
    Greatr work man!

    Great action shot Phillip. I can see the horses working—-their feet in the air, and horses leaning. The sepia tones certainly suit the era this photo belongs to as well.. A fav

  • phillip wise replied

    hey bonso thankyou very much for the comments , watchlisting and fav this pic…the only thing i don’t like about this pic is the driver is wearing a pair of sun glasses and it probaly dates the pic

  • bonso
