No, it’s South Fourth Avenue, taken with my camera set to sepia color!
See the post below for sepia photos of homemade bread.

Hello Leora,
The cars, both shape and number revealed the year.
The mid-fifty feeling is definitely there.
Silent and dignified, half asleep, half waiting for something undefined to happen.
Like being youg.

The cars really are all that gives it away.
This reminds me of the street my girlfriend lived on when we were teenagers.
It’s a great shot Leora!
Dang those cars! Otherwise you could have totally fooled me. 😉
This street appeals to me. I like the big, older homes.
I actually had a shot without the cars. But I kinda liked them. Glad you are having fun with this.
EG Wow: Highland Park is full of small, older homes (and a few big ones). Hard to get a 4 bedroom. I think those are two-family homes.
The Volvo on the end, although modern, does not take the 1950 out of this picture. Sepia makes the shot look older than it is, and perfect for that era…or this one too. Perfect!
Fantastic sepia shading! It really does look as if it was from that era! Really nice!!!
It could certainly pass but for the cars. If you could get a shot of clothes on the lines in the backyards, you could sell it as 1950 — or even earlier — and nobody’d ever suspect differently.
You could have fooled me because I didn’t notice the cars until I read your comments. The bread below looks so good!!
My sepia post isHERE
I really like this inh sepia…I didn’t notice the cars till reading the comments.
Looking good in sepia. I like the capture of the tree branches against the sky too 😛
Love the camera setting …I used to have sepis setting on my previous camera.
LOVED your bread photos..the neutral setting my favorite photo. Your daughter is precious! 🙂 NG
wow…looks..older 😀
My entry for Sepia post this week: in HERE. I hope that you can stop by also. Thanks
Great effect on this row of houses. I like the trees on the rights too.
On the”right” of course. That’s where the “five-minute edit” button would come handy.
Ilana-Davita, you have convinced me to give that 5-minute plugin a try!
The sepia really does make it look straight out of the fifties. Even the station wagon could almost work.
Great choice.
How classic and beautiful the photo is.
sepia is definately the color of memory
It does look like the good old 1950s..what a nice neighborhood!
I think I see Donna Reed waving from the living room window 😉
This is a perfect photo for sepia, Leora
Hi!
Great Sepia Photo!! Could definitely be from the 1950’s. Have a great day!!
Sherrie
wow very nice and just perfect for Sepia. Without the cars you would really think that it was in the 50’s.:-))))
Good mood picture. Definitely not the 50’s I don’t think they posted Slow Down signs in neighborhoods back then. LOL
Great job, Leora! Sure does look like the 50s! Happy SEpia Scenes!
It sure does look like the 50s! Very nostalgic looking.
It does make it look like the 1950s…
