Nov 19, 2015 at 1:37 | comment | added | Stan Rogers | Most of the "effect" here comes from shooting high-speed (400 or 800 ISO) film in a toy camera (Holga, Diana, or similar), somewhat underexposed (not that there's a lot of choice, given a single shutter speed and maybe two aperture values on a higher-end model). Colloquially, you can call if "Lomography" (but that's actually a brand name). You can fake the softness, field curvature, grain, vignetting and light leaks individually once you spot them for what they are - or you can use a plugin like Topaz Lens Effects that has canned versions. | |

This photo appears to have been shot during the golden hour which likely heavily contributed to the tones: google.com/search?q=golden+hour | |

Clarified silly title and added paragraph breaks.
