EXEMPLAR BELOW...

Here is an example of one way of achieving the distinction for AOB 3.  The annotation is underneath the images. You will be doing 12 of these in total.

The techniques used include blending layers of colour and texture, vignetting and imitating light leaks. The purpose of these edits was to make the image have a 'retro' appearance and make the viewer feel that they are looking at an old Polaroid.
