Photo or painting?
This really should say if it's a photograph or a painting. I can't tell for sure, but it looks like a really good painting. 50.193.171.69 (talk) 23:50, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It's a photograph. It doesn't look like a modern photograph because this is very early color film, and the saturation levels of the color pigments are quite different from what we are used to. For similar examples, see the color images in the gallery for
Thanks for the info--that's fascinating to know. I looked at the other pictures, and you know, they remind me of old National Geographics. I think I like the old pictures better than today.

Thanks again for the photohistory lesson! 50.193.171.69 (talk) 01:43, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
