Day 24 of 30 SPs in 2007.

Wanted to come up with something that was reminiscent of 8mm films in the 80s. I looked for pre-made borders, but couldn't find one I liked, so I created this one. I wanted to show something like the movie "Boogie Nights".

I know this may be perceived as tasteless and vulgar - if so, please accept my humble apologies. It's intent is a snapshot of a time period that has past, whether we like what it was or not...

I think I am missing something, if you think this may be 'perceived' as tasteless and vulgar.. Maybe me being an 80s kid I just find this shot wicked. You seriously have a great talent.

Great crop and close-up. Not tasteless or vulgar at all, IMO.

hahahaha! I think you may have spent the 80's watching too many of these movies! This is spot on! ummm from what I've heard anyway :D The yellow/green hues, contrast and grain really add to the film quality. Top marks :)
