I have been to the places featured in this project many times and I have taken dozens of photos before. This time I wanted to do something different, and so I set the camera to a square crop and applied an in-camera "vintage" filter to all of my shots. This provided a challenge, but resulted in consistent, coherent results which helped enhance the hot, hazy, summer feel and colours. Some shots were taken with a Lensbaby "sol" lens which further adds to the hazy quality of the images.
