If we have to shoot color we might as well have it come out like these... Which to me look strongly like Polaroids. The thing to do is to also print them in black and white and see if they improve or not. Hang both up for a while. I've found lots of times you think you have a strong color statement but you don?t miss them when they're gone especially as you've got a much stronger image. But sometimes not.
