Travel Style Posters.

I recently set up a store on Zazzle and attempted to create my first set of vintage-style travel posters. The following are the results of that. I'll have more attempts at them over time, but these are my first six.

Four of the pictures were created based on pictures I have taken and can also be seen on Clickasnap; the two New York pictures were created from images used under Creative Commons commercial licence.

I created them using Photoshop. I took the original image, cropped it, resized it, and then used the cutout filter in the filter gallery to give the image an illustration-style look. I completed the image by adding the text.

This picture looks out towards the Isle of Arran from Ardrossan Beach, Ayrshire. I took the original picture in 2013. Clicking the image will open a link to the unwatermarked image on Clickasnap.

Beaumaris Castle, this picture was originally taken in the 1970's. Clicking the image will open a link in another window to the Clickasnap version of the picture.

Not sure where in Lanzarote I took this only it was in July 2013. Clicking the picture will open a link in another window to the version on Clickasnap.

This image, if clicked, will open a link in another window to my Colins_picture_this store on Zazzle. I offer my pictures taken outside Calderdale, my home county, in various formats there.

Clicking this image will open a link in another window to my Calderdale_Unframed store on Zazzle, a place to offer various products of images taken in the Calderdale area where I live.

Wharf Street, Sowerby Bridge, the original picture was taken on January 1, 2020, early morning, and unusually for the main street through Sowerby Bridge, it was very quiet, with the road usually being nose to tail with traffic. Clicking the image will open a link in another window to the version on Clickasnap.

 There's something hauntingly beautiful about old photographs, especially when they're presented in a way that flips our perception....
