Positive & Goop
« on: June 21, 2008, 11:58:44 PM »
Have been playing around with this image from this morning. I call it "Joe's House". Am fascinated by the way a bit of goop and levels/contrast in P'shop can change an image so much. Shame I have no control over those blasted white streaks.

Note to Sean: I tried washing the white streaks off as per your suggestion, but ended up just washing all of the goop off instead. Have you definitely done this with 125i film?

not with 125i, but with 669, uv-id, etc. but i waited until they were dry...then the top layer of streaky stuff washes off.

Are you cleaning your ears in-between shots? Hahaha. Hmm, maybe the rollers, eh? I've had that problem in the past with 669 and those marks. Don't get any ideas and turn that sentence into a fiasco either. Dunno Ed...it's sort of...well, Ed like. I was just picturing you washing the film to ablivion and having nothing left! HAHA.

Yeah, I've always had bad luck with those nasty white streaks. Bugged me to hell and I finally quit messing with the goop stuff.

OK, cheers. I'll give it a go. So far just tested it out on ones that didn't work. Have a few dry ones now so will try later.

i'm really not going to make any rude remarks right now.
