For this photo, I had already decided I wanted to feature the toy dinosaur I found and was outside in my back yard when I decided to stick the cigarette butt in his mouth. It was difficult to hold the camera steady with one hand while reaching around with the other to spark the lighter, but I eventually got one that wasn't blurry. I used the app Snapseed on this and my other photos this week to give it the vintage feel. The filter isn't as heavily plastered on as some of my other photos but it is definitely noticeable. I don't remember exactly which settings I tweaked, as I usually just mess around in Snapseed until I get something that looks good. If I could do it again, I'd frame it with a slightly different background because the fence is at a bit of an off-putting angle. The leaf in the foreground bottom right is also starting to bother me...grrr.
