Well I was briefly at our holiday house today and saw some shots from back in the old days, tried to turn one of my shots from today into what those photos looked like (and a bit further).
Any opinions on the PP are very welcome.
Cheers,
Owen.

nice PP work here you've really done well to make it look look aged.... Old photos are often sepia coloured. Did you try a sepia version?

How's this for a sepia version?

I think that the tinny is a give away

G'day mate,
I like this, think you've done well getting the ye oldie look, works well... Not sure on the exposure on the highlights on some of the tinnie's, is there any room to perhaps "lower" the highlights on the few bright upturned tin's or get some more detail in them?... Grain and vignette works well..
Hmmm, the vignette in the sepia version doesn't seem as strong as the B&W...

Nope, two different versions. I went back and did the sepia on the saved version which was a few steps prior to the black & white image. I'm not too serious about the image, just having a bit of a mess around after a rather unsuccessful day of photography
Thanks for the comments though everyone.
