A 1970s party photograph taken on cheap colour film with a hard direct flash: a crowded room of guests in evening dress, one couple in focus at the front and others cut by the frame behind them. Flat harsh flash lighting with deep black shadows on the wall, skin lit evenly and slightly blown, colour shifted warm and magenta with age, softened print detail and fine grain. Nobody posed, several people mid sentence.

Tips
- 1Magenta shift and softened detail do the ageing. Avoid asking for a filter.
- 2Cut people with the frame. Composed groups look staged.
- 3Deep black shadow behind the subjects is what makes flash read as flash.
