Inspired by a recent discussion about barrel/pincushion distortion.

The first image is an example used for dynamic range compression without
other processing. Due to need to keep the example simple the black level
is not optimal in the image. http://www.pp.htv.fi/kkivisal/c/room4.jpg

Same image after black level adjustment with barrel distortion,
chromatic aberration, flare, lens falloff and some film grain.

Small effects by themselves but they add to the illusion and help
to break the clinical CG look.
