Levels/curves. Channel mixer/hue/sat. AIM: to give it the look of an old slide from the 70s.
The old VW campervan parks on our streeet and makes me laugh each time I see it. Reminds me of the constant Nuclear paranoia that we lived through in the 70s. Government information films, TV dramas like 'Threads' and films like 'When the wind blows' all fuelled this. We lived near to American air bases like Brize Norton and Greenham Common so I knew that the Soviet war machine was targeting my back garden for sure. My mother said she would go outside if the bombs dropped...she wouldn't want to live in the post-apocalyptic world...that didn't reassure me! I still remember phrases like 'better red than dead: better active than radioactive' and 'mutually assured destruction'. Oh, nostalgia!!!!!

I really love this shot, but it's too s60s. The title being from dr. strangelove which came out in 64. It's a great photo and the colors are awesome. So, although I don't think it exactly meets the challenge, i'm gonna give it an 8.
