Back in Time

[dje]

We had occasion to visit Euchuca recently. It is a small town on the Murray River in northern Victoria and was a major river port in days gone by. Parts of the old port area have been restored over the years and it has become a popular tourist attraction. Here are a few shots I took which I hope capture some of the atmosphere of bygone years. Comments welcome.

"Alice Springs or Bust" and they have a pushie in the back in case the ute gives up.

Good choice to convert these images to black and white to complement the subjects, Dave. For the sake of presentation it might have been better to apply the same process to all images.

Yes I think the "or Bust" part would be highly likely!

I agree with you about using similar treatment for each image. I think I'm getting a bit slack in my old age.
