Superb image. The ball gives a real sense of 3D. Thanks!

Thanks for the comments. It was literally taken through a 4½ inch crystal ball. The picture is indeed old--it's my mother and her twin sister taken in 1919. I enjoyed creating the image. I was anticipating more post processing but did very little.

Nice job Michael.nj. I like the old fashion flavor of the pic.

g'day michael.nj, good powerful compositional elements - that do work to emphasize past and present - and make for a very good image - i am intrigued to know more about this image. thanks
