you capture : black and white

One more photo from the weekend in Copenhagen.  This week's theme for You Capture was black and white.  I took this photo of Nyhavn from a watertaxi on our way to Halvandet.   Nyhavn was one of the last ports in central Copenhagen to be gentrified in the 1970s.  It's now pretty much over -run with touristy restaurants, but if you squint your eyes (or turn your photo into B&W) it's as if time stood still.

This photo also got a bit of a sprucing up with a vintage texture freebie from Paint the Moon

This is incredible - it doesn't even look like a new photo...looks like something pulled out of time.
