Digital Photograph...The Old Mill


This is an old textile mill up in the mountains of North Carolina. I turned this into a black and white photograph, then into a stamp in Photo Shop. Added a few more layers to give it some depth. I hope you will enlarge this to get the full effect. Another ghost...
