A challenge where the image is to represent a portraiture indicative of a past decade (i.e 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, or 90s.)

Think the rat pack, or a year book photo from 1973.

Here's come ref images: //www.carygrant.net/fotogallery/thumbnail.htm

not the same! lol. besides those images were more 40-50s that he referenced.

besides this would be a portraiture contest, not a decades one.

Those are just the decades... I mean a portraiture that looks as though it was taken in the given (stylistically)... You know, Think of your parent's photos from school.

hey I don't just do myself.... those ones just score better. ;)

besides I don't have my lights any more and it's much harder to do SPs in an outdoor setting. :(

More like 3 1/2...but we digress....

I think the original idea is great. I like some of those old sepia/colorized portraits from the 40's. I think they're cool looking.
