All the things I like most: lack of fidelity; studied negligence; get-stuffed grain; etc. However, you have (hopefully unconsciously) gone uncomfortably close to a classic rule-of-thirds composition, and you'll really have to stamp that sort of thing out if you want to remain in the club, mate. Having said that, the images's many splendid flaws are sufficient to compensate for the one wee slip into photography. But watch it, OK?

Ah, nostalgic. Reminds me of family holidays at Polzeath, Cornwall in the 1950s!

If I could just SEE through my zone plate :-) I'm totally digging the skaters-on-sand aspect of this :-)

Love the feel of this. Just a perfect old photo with the bonus shadowy area that adds to the interest.

That was my first thought, skaters on ice. Love the grain.

Belly laugh! And given my physique, that's a big one!
