Clever idea to make it look as though the image itself was taken in 1955. I imagine a few folks will be decrying that the content is meant to represent the year not the look of the finish but I kind of like it. On the other hand, content wise it's the kind of image that is just a family album snapshot - someone's new car etc. If it were real I might possibly have vague interest as historical record but in 2005? I just can't find any appeal in the contents OUTSIDE of the fact that it meets the challenge, if that makes sense. What I mean is that if I were giving 5/5 for meeting challenge and 5/5 for appealing to me in it's own right, I'd give 5 and 1. Goodness but I'm rambling away a la Kavey. I'll stop now. :o) |

A bit too grainy perhaps. However, it really does look like the 50's (I was there!). |

The fact that they had to validate this photo speaks pretty highly of it. Great job! |

5 - This feels 'real' to me and meets the Challenge in my opinion (this shot printed and put into a time capsule depicts the era for future generations). Criticism; I like the effort you have seemingly made to get the aged effect, but in my opinion there is alittle too much grain, or 'something'. I like the angle, but would like to see the car driving a little closer. Not sure about the frame. To really nitpick, maybe the road sign needs cropping out, not sure. I like the 'feel' mainly though in this shot, just wish it were not quite so grainy. |

This is the best vintage shot I've seen. It really evokes a time - the entire image is like a capsule. This is the best entry of the challenge in my opinion. 10 |

Great find - a real slice out of time, but too grainy for me... |

This image definitely fits the challenge and looks like it came right from the 1955's. The use of noise in this works well. "8" |

This feels like a picture of a picture. If I'm wrong on that, please accept my apologies. |

Nice. A good leading line that takes the eye to the auto. Good comp. I like the grain. It works well for this image IMO. Looks like it's straight from the 50's. Good job. |

Wow, you use the noise filter very well here and the monochromatic works perfectly. |

I am in awe of this photo. Not only is the subject matter smack dab on, but the treatment of it emulates the style of the day perfectly: the graininess, the static treatment of the subject, the arttificial distance caused by using a short focal lenghth cheep lens, and so on. Truly inspired. |

This picture has the right look and feel, but for me it is a lot too grainy. |
