Such a wonderfully old world feel to the image, like stepping into the frame and back in time.

Superb capture of the past Michael. My old “computing machine” of my today’s post would fit in perfectly with this picture!
If I look close, I can see the ghosts, bustling around, perhaps staring out the window, thinking the days work is overwhelming. Or, at the end of the day, leaning back in that c reaking old chair, sighing with satisfaction.
This is a beautiful shot, Michael.
