Time leaves a mark. Hairline scratches, dust caught in the scan, the subtle debris of a life lived on film. Dust & Scratches is a collection of ten meticulously crafted overlays modelled from authentic film scans — preserving the abrasion, surface texture, and organic wear that give analog images their unmistakable soul. Each effect self-adapts across any orientation or aspect ratio, covering the full frame while maintaining natural variation. Because perfection is modern — but texture is timeless.
