Sweet filters

You know those cellophane sweet wrappers that come off chocolates like those from a Quality Street box of goodies? Well, don't throw them away! They come in all kinds of colours and you can use them as impromptu camera lens filters. Granted, you have to hold them in front of the lens but hey, it's free and you don't add more plastic to a landfill site!

Here's an example. Dreamy effect, don't you think? No photoshop required!
