2nd place
In An Instant!!! by jerseygurl

Starglow: Does bring back memories and this is a terrific photo layout.

LynEve: Well done on attaining second place in the contest Laura - well deserved
Oh how I wanted one of these in the 1960's !

Ramad: Laura, in my days (even in the eighties) at sea when we had some important thing to report (like damage etc.) I used to take Polaroid shots and post it from the next port. It would have taken at least a week to reach the ship owner. Today you take a photo and within 10 minutes you can send it via satellite from mid-ocean. That is progress for you. Nice one and if this is your contest entry it is a very good one.

Retro Room ? by mesmerized

gonedigital: This fits the retro comp perfectly Pat, 60's to early 70's perhaps! Reminds me of Twiggy and awful pattern designs.

Well done.

5th place
Caddy and Kittens by Constance52347

gr8fulted: According to dictionary.com:

retro
[re-troh]
Spell Syllables
Examples Word Origin
See more synonyms on Thesaurus.com
adjective, Informal.
1.
retroactive:
retro pay.
2.
of or designating the style of an earlier time:
retro clothes.

However, in today's parlance, it could also mean an already old thing that's cool, or an old style that's coming back. It seems lots of 50s and 60s designs are making a comeback these days. Just one guy's thoughts.
