A Factory Tan

Bona Allen Tannery, Buford, Georgia, USA

Sometimes, when we stray off the beaten path, we discover unusual buildings and history.  Such was the case when we found the old Bona Allen Tannery.  This storied company once made saddles for Roy Rogers' horse, Trigger, and was a favorite saddle for the cast of Bonanza.

To get this image, we started with our original color photo and then used Picasa's  Holga-ish filter to render an emulation of a Holga camera photo.
