redish cast!

When I made my version, I had the mill's history in mind. It was built
around 1900, iirc, and was in use until 1930. I don't know if it's
entirely correct from a history POV to sepia-tone a pic from this era,
but I suppose there's a certain chance that yellowing would occur if
it was a print from that era...:-)

I know from my grandfather's photos from that age that even the 6x9
negs of Agfa film had visible grain. When I look through both my
grandfathers' albums, I also frequently see very high-contrast prints.

I certainly see that it can be done better than my attempt. I think I
liked Rob's better than Shel's for being closer to my idea about an
old look, but it's a b/w newbie speaking here anyway...:-)

I should probably stick to colour, but it's an interesting excersise!
