Timewarp in Hicksville

Timeless shots in old towns

Just uploaded ‘Timewarp in Hicksville’ to Flickr. We took these shots whilst on our roadtrip to Uluru, in various outback towns, quite literally, in the middle of nowhere. Most of these places were totally and utterly deserted, probably because we were there during the Christmas period, but given their locality to the rest of Australia, we felt they were likely to be no busier at any other time of the year. They offered a timeless charm we’d not seen for years, almost like someone really had pressed the pause button on time itself. We played with the hue and saturation on these shots, though believe it or not, not too much – the drained colours caused by the intense sunlight that has shone on these places for 50 years or more.
