Aperture: f/22
ISO: 100
Shutter: 10 sec

 Latest in my series of plain objects shot plainly, but with a new element; legal "soft glow".

North skylight: levels, hue/sat (both minimal): glow attained by overcooking neat image and applying serious USM on top of that; I have been looking for a basic-editing-legal glow effect for weeks, and finally found it. Impetus for the glow was to banish tiny imperfections and dust mores on the camera that I was unsuccesful in brushing off pre-shoot, but I love the effect. Cropped and bordered.

As a collector of antique cameras, I enjoy this picture. I wouldn't call it a winner but it makes me smile and that's enough for me.

Nice choice as we sometimes forget the advances in technology. Clear and touchable.

Good fit within the challenge. A decent photo. The front face has a little bit of an exposure problem.

Perhaps if they had you taking photos of your camera, we would see more of these today. Nice shot.

OH Yeah...the Polaroid camera. I think this picture could have been made more interesting by taking an angled shot rather than straight on.
