1. Photographic Colour Tones Saturation Contrast

2. Contrast Contrast is the difference between the lights and the darks within a image. If you have a picture that has little contrast, it is usually very subdued. If you take an image and turn down the contrast, the light parts of the picture become darker, and the dark parts become lighter. In this image it is a high contrast, the blacks are very the black and the whites are very white, there is no mid-tones, colours such as grey for example

3. Increasing saturation by 50% each image

4. Saturation Saturation is the amount of a color. Increasing saturation purifies that color and enhances it and makes it vibrant. Decreasing it draws the color out of it. De-saturating generally means removing all the colour altogether.

10. Low Fi camera characteristics Vignetting is a reduction of an image's brightness or saturation at the periphery compared to the image center. This is caused by poor quality lens (1)

11. A light leak is a hole or gap in the body of a camera where light is able to "leak" into the normally light-tight chamber, exposing the film or sensor with extra light. This light is diffuse, although parts within the camera may cast shadows or reflect it in a particular way. For most purposes this is considered a problem. Within the lomography movement it is seen as a positive effect, giving photos character. (2) Low Fi camera characteristics

12. Chromatic aberration/Distortion Chromatic aberration is a type of distortion in which there is a failure of a lens to focus all colors to the same convergence point. It is the failure to record when two colour’s meat one another. In particular when a bright and dark colour are near one another an additional dark line is placed in this area by Low Fi camera as a results of the low quality lens (3) Low Fi camera characteristics
