Description
I visited a town ("Venterskroon" = Vendor's Crown) so rich in history that I was gripped by the plight and lives of people during days of turmoil when gold was discovered. Robbers and local hangings were the two sides of the scales of justice. Many paranormal sightings had been recorded over the years where the old hanging tree stood. After spending an hour in low light in the jailhouse at the back, I could not resist reconstructing what I experienced. Â

Fantastic post work! Really loved the concept as well........
Great work!! looks like an authentic old time photo.. Excellent!!
So stellar and descriptive I can't understand why it was subject to review. Not much different than Dodge City of yore. I love the POV and ambiance you've depicted in this concept. And, aren't you one of the censors and moderators? You should have carte blanche with this kind of stuff.
I'm not sure, either, why this is under review. It is a fact of history that hangings occurred. I think you did a wonderful job with this.
love this look I could have stayed along time also just pondering what really went on great photo piet wow~
Eerie~ I got goosebumps. Good work.
WOW! u continue to amaze and impress my friend. I love the tone and pov, and post production work. It is a powerful image without being grousome as it would if you had showed a whole swinging corpse...not to mention the difficulty in finding one i suppose. Should i ask it they were your boots there or a shade of a robber past?
Very spooky feel to this capture.
This is outstanding work, powerful and visceral.
Tragic story and very emotional. wonderful how you showed us your vision.
Very creepy and depressing, but you did a fantastic job on this. Very well done.
Powerful image that attests to the history of this place!! The history of the past is not always pleasant but should not be forgotten or swept under the carpet. Excellent post work and mood you have created, and creative idea well accomplished, sir.
Nicely framed! Love the feet!

Powerful work Piet, these are things that happened here, too. Far too often. You've created a very strong atmosphere here, the image practically speaks for itself. Beautifully done.
