seem to be too photoshopped. There's too much noise/grain added to the pictures, and the edges / corner are way too dark vs the bright center. The use of this filter (I forgot the name, sorry), should be much more subtle in my opinion.
Interesting ideas though...

Thanks for your opinion. No grain or noise added was added--the image was shot on film which consists of silver halide grains--so the grainy effect is a feature, not a bug. Also the camera I used to shoot that image is called a Holga which is a medium format plastic camera with a plastic lens. The lens is so shitty it doesn't cover the film completely and so vignettes (the dark edges and corners) the image. Photographers uses Holgas for the look they create, and each Holga has its own combination of vignetting and light leaks which makes it unique.
