I don't know what it is about the retro look. Maybe it's just that I like things to look different, with it's own unique flavor. In the past few years I have been delving deeper into different effects of the retro look. Call it what you will - retro, throwback, old school, vintage - but they all give a certain "feeling" and "mood". The effects can turn a regular looking photo into something unique and creative. I am currently playing around with a new effect I am calling "Make Me Retro". Here's a few samples of the look. It's still under the "polishing" stages, but I'm really liking this..... Far Out!
