Pitlochary, Farm

Love the smears on the handwriting.
The edges of the "Polaraoids" are a bit too rough and choppy, though. I'd make them clean and smoother, just to give it a bit more "real" feeling.
Nice job! Reply »

I like the updating of the lame "vintage" [never happened!] Polaroids from the mandated tutorial. For a true Polaroid, the white border should be on the same plane as (be essentially part of) the image so the border shouldn't cast any shadow on the image. Also, Polaroids tended to be a bit washed out, i.e., low saturation, unlike here. I like the smeared handwriting but I don't get the light-leak hot spots, especially their encroachment on the non-photosensitive border. Reply »
