    #1 has a very strong tie to the theme, is nicely done in terms of composition and lighting, and is overall more pleasing to me than #2. I get a strong sense of nostalgia from #1, even though I never had one of those cameras. thumb.gif

    agreed. #2 was more of a gag than anything.

    #1 for me. the vignetting adds a bit of flavor.

    The case looks brand new and leaves me halfway between nostalgic vs. rescued.

    When you come to a door... walk through it.
    If it's locked... find an open window.

    I like the concept in #2, but the lighting is too flat. Maybe you could have the guy in the middle keeping the other 2 at bay. :D

    actually, that is a great idea!! I'll try that :D
    and yes, I know it is flat. It was the first and last time i've ever done that, this shot is over a year old, too.. (I know, it is against the rules to run the old pictures in contest)

    The image with the camera is very nice.

    ... although it's a wonderful camera, for the contest I (personally) would try to make a much tighter crop, focusing only on the lenses.
