I miss the good old days, when neighbors sat on porches
long into the summer's evening, drinking ice tea and saying
"Hello!" to all who passed by.

other sizes: small medium original auto

The location is wonderful. The contrasty light is especially nice.Also the toning works well.

Cool retro look. I miss those days, too. Maybe I should just move back to Kentucky.

What a cozy spot. I think air conditioning ruined the front porch sitting (except for those folks who can't afford a/c!) Isabel

I miss those days too, but in some respects thay weren't so good. The security door looks out of place: sad.

This is great, Gary. As I look at this I keep expecting Ernest Hemingway to come out of the house, wave and sit down on the porch. Very well done, especially the sepia tone.

Sittin' on the front porch on a summer afternoon In a straightback chair on two legs, leans against the wall Watch the kids a' playin' with June bugs on a string And chase the glowin' fireflies when evenin' shadows fall In my Tennessee mountain home Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh In my Tennessee mountain home Crickets sing in the fields near by

Very nice scene in sepia.
