If you've been visiting 5SF for a while, you know that
all of the photos here are mine and that,
"what you see is what I shot"

 Others, who have contributed photos were given credit
 and
 only two pictures were played with on the computer,  which I also pointed our at the time.  I plan on keeping
 the photos on this blog true to the way they were taken.
With that said, let me explain the pictures your looking at.  

I like the way the pictures on Muddy Boot Dreams and
 It's a Southern Thing  looked, but had no idea 
how to go about it. 
A few weeks back I found a web site "Vintage West Photos"
this site belongs to Stacie Lamson.   Stacie is a ranch wife
in Southeaster Montana, who started getting serious about
her photography last December.  I had seen Stacie's
photos before on her blog Smiling country, now privet.

She created these great textures and has make them 
available as free downloads, to any one who would like
to use them. "Wow that's really nice"  Let me just say    
      "THANK YOU STACIE"

What do you think.....the photos are mine, of course  and
 the textures are Stacie's.  I used Tin Typish, Warm Muslin
 and Branding Wood.  Using the Picasa collage setting to 
lay the texture over the photo, then changed the lighting
and the color with Windows Live Photo Gallery, that
 came on my computer.  It was furn and now I'm hooked.
Thinking about adding a page to the blog just for photo
 play... still working on all the text being the same color.

Those textures are really cool. I have seen pics like that too and have always wondered how they were made.
