I used a Kodak Ektachrome E100G Pro film in my Olymbus XA2 camera to achieve this. I really like this picture but I can't pin point exactly what I like about it.........

Cheers. I have yes, but not as much as normal. I find the Ektachorme film adds a nice effect by it self because it’s slide film, so I try not to mess with them too much. Yeah I think that’s what I like about it! I could come up with some arty speal to go with it to make it just that little bit more pretentious!
That camera looks real nice. I do prefer the XA flash though. It screws onto the side. Purely a style think, put that can be important sometime ;-)

With our matching jumpers buddy, I think it's safe to say you and I know about style!

Robert, I think you caught the moment - that's a great bite there!
The vintage tone of the image from the slide films works well, makes it look like it could be the 50's, 60's, 70's etc

Funny you should mention that Chris. I was just saying to Robert that the quality of this image lies, somewhat, in it's flat unasuming touch; coupled with a great shot anyhow! I really like this sort of stuff.
