Did take a picture at a place where i were many times as a little kid, went on skiing in the winter time.
We also used to cycle there with the class in the summer time.

Wanted the picture to look old, so what you think? C&C

I think you achieved your goal... It looks like an old newspaper clipping!

I think there are other possibilities here in pp to give the old age effect without loosing the details in the shot..this looks very noisy rather than old...i would probably have left it at sepia conversion with some other tweaks to achieve the old age effect

I like the image. Nice delivery on a non-literal interpretation.

Old doesn't necessarily mean grainy. The oldest film images were on coated glass plates and printed as contact prints so while you have found the tone of a sun and time weathered print the grain tells a slightly different story. For many years grain was the bug in the stew and people worked very hard to control it until a post modern art movement came to be and people started using grain as a function of IQ. Typically an old photograph (even my moms brownie, a cheap camera by all measure, was a 6x6) will have silky and often faded tone.

Don't like it if that's what you did in pp. Way too grainy/pixilated.
