(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Now here is something you don't see everyday, especially here in the United States. Long before everyone could walk about with a cell phone in their hand, people had to find a telephone somewhere when they were away from their home and needed to make a call. Someone in England created a stylish and now iconic telephone booths like this one, where a person could step inside, close the door, drop a coin in a slot and pay to make a call in private. We used to have rather plain-looking telephone booths on city sidewalks and other places, but now they have vanished almost completely. Today, with pocket-sized cell phones that work almost everywhere without wires, you can often see people making their private calls just about anywhere. Traveling about our country when I can is quite enjoyable as I frequently find something I did not expect to see.

I created this mage from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures and painterly-style effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green magnifier square as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
