Description
There�s plenty of opportunity to get faux-timeless shots at the Coatbridge Summerlee Heritage Museum. By this I mean a shot taken recently of a museum piece that could conceivably have been taken many decades ago. This is a prime example: a colliery winding tower at the bottom end of the museum sight. The idea is to make it look genuine, so two things must necessarily happen. The first is that no modern structures or items should be discernable, and secondly, perhaps introduce a few image flaws typical of the photographic equipment of the era. In this case a textured sepia tone was used. I hope I have met the first criteria, but you never know: some eagle eye may be able to pick out something that should really not be there!
