    Old Camera

    Did a little more table-top stuff this morning and this is one of the results.
    Opinions always welcome.

    That is an awesome idea! I have no real crit for this. It looks pretty well done to me. I just really love the idea. I might just copy it.

    I agree with almo. Great shot, the tones are great, and all aspects of this picture are just bang on. Wonderful shot!

    Good shot, Tom. The period photos really set it off.

    Hi Tom,
    Nice camera. I like the idea and the overall composition. I am not sure about the position of the strap. It seems a bit unnatural.
    All the best.

    Re: Old Camera

    Many thanks to you all for commenting. Yoyo I did paly with the strap to try and get the best position, maybe it could be better placed.
    I might just experiment again.
    Regards

    I like the position of the strap. It is just a part of the camera, so it just adds a bit of truth to the image.

    I definitely think that the old pictures influence this picture greatly. I really like the setup of the camera as well. I really don't mind the strap.

    Re: Old Camera

    Tom, a great idea and you pulled this off well. There is something about this though that could use improvement, but I can't put my finger on it. Seems a bit busy or cluttered somewhat. But, I think it is still strong, especially in concept. Good work.
