Time on my hands - two files attached

[Don Pyeatt]

Attached are two files, an original black and white and a photoshopped
version of the same.

The building is the original terminal building at Fort Worth's municipal
airport, sometime in the late 1930s. It no longer exists. The airplanes
are era-specific and were added just for fun.

Conversion was made with Photoshop's "colorize" feature plus a few other
tricks.

All comments are welcomed - cheers, jeers or ho-hums.

Nice work overall though the planes are an obvious paste up
But thats cool because it looks like the art work for a retro post card or
advertisement

I agree with Clairbear about the great postcard look of the aircraft. The
colorization is very good. I particularly like the attention to detail of
colorizing the 2 windows you can see through the building.

I suspect the tri-motor was photographed on the ground, otherwise the
full down elevator and left rudder with neutral aileron would make
life interesting ;-)

Gee...I thought no one would notice. Here's the original.

Notice it is marked American Airways - the predecessor of American Airlines
which was founded in Fort Worth at Meacham Airport.
