This and the locomotive photo were made at a recent event. I am currently wading through about 1200 photos from that day.

It was as if these two posed for me in front if their Model A, the building and trees framing the shot nicely, and the background lending credibility. Sometimes it better to be lucky than good!

A massive departure from my normal stuff.

For us "oldsters" who remember b&w TV ... the set of Lucy & Desi's kitchen

Jeez, I dunno about being that old, but we had black and white TV until about 1980!

Did they have the living room? That’s the one I remember most

Yes, and their apartment setting in Hollywood from those episodes. Since the shows were broadcast in b&w, if your wondering, the sofa and chair are a bright royal blue.

Maybe you should post these in another thread in color, if you shot them that way. It'd be interesting for those of us who grew up watching them to see it in other than B&W. When I was a kid we did a Universal Studios Tour and saw them Filming "Munsters Go Home." I was shocked to find out their faces were all green.

I posted the color pics in the " Show : Random pics" to see what we missed

When I saw this, I couldn't help wondering what a color version might have looked like. But the more I look at this photograph - and I have spent some time staring at it - the more convinced I am that this black-and-white treatment of it is truly the right one - and contributes to the power of the image. Bravo!

Thanks, in color it is mostly red from the rocks and reflection/cast
