The weekend is here: Dec 11 - 13
« on: December 11, 2009, 06:41:06 PM »
Very cold here in Seattle (for Seattle standards). -9 c when waking this AM.  Shooting polaroid outside has been a challenge, but a couple of (indoor) experiments with macro diopters came out to my liking. Both 665, both scanned as RGB.

Great pics so far!  It was a wonderful day here today, frosty with drifting fog.  Shame I was working and couldn't take any pics but we're due more of the same over the weekend.  I got 3 films in the post today so scanning is under way.

Some efforts from the holga (provia 400x):

That second shot isn't a self-portrait is it?  :D  Come on, you can tell us.

Wow,   thanks diane,  always good to get a nice comment!

I am quite keen on it and whilst id not thought about a postcard  I was going to try and look at a pola transfer.    It was infact my plan for today.....which due to my works christmas party last night, plans got altered due to a thumping head....oops!

 I was going to send a cuban themed on this round but a) i couldnt find the ones i had made and 2) was unsure if it would mean our US friends being rounded up in the night for being damned commies.

Some stunning images this weekend already. I will try to have something to contribute tomorrow.

Gregor - the second image really resonates with me
tinm@n - tis I that need to take note - the second image is a real portrait - leaving the ret to the viewer is very classy indeed
andrea - the best yet and a great read too - in your own inimitable style
calbisu - the second is another image that really deserves time and space to be viewed.

These are a couple more from my new Bessa R3A (which i love), but having been shooting square for so long I'm having trouble with the rectangle.

Hi all, sorry this is a bit big, but I've got about 3 minutes to get this posted before 'getting the kids ready for bed' happens. Will chip later w/ comments (Andrea...your snap is amazing) and maybe another image or two. Here's one from yesterday though to kick things off:

Agree; it does have that "Samhain album cover" look to it  ;) The print is stained in instant coffee for the aged look (and added fragrance) and then if you want cracks you can dry it for a couple of mins on a radiator instead of at room temp. Not too long though or you'll get loads of cracks. You'll be absolutely stunned to hear that my process is - as yet - a trifle hit and miss  ;D :D Keeping it real by deploying the Wenn/Rice "Ballpark Method" as stipulated in our Filmwasters contracts.

Here's a second photo from this weekend. Not as effective, but still something of the mysterious about it I hope. Goop scan.

At risk of being a bore, I post five from the first rolls of tri-x exposed in my newly acquired Canonet G-III QL.  I think that I may have a new favorite camera...

Howdy,
Here are a couple of Fuji Instant film photos, taken with a 1939 Speed Graphic and an 1860s 12" f/8 Darlot brass
barrel lens (see photo #3). :D

Glad to hear that you have basically mounted the goalposts on wheels.

I tried to set aside some time to do some Pola transfers last night, for some wierd reason I could not get a decent transfer.....I dont understand it, Ive done it a fair few times before and for some reason it was not playing ball last night.

Nigel, I doubt whether the instant coffee staining 'process' (if I may be so grand? No, OK, sorry) will work in the same way on any prints other than Polacolor 125i....you may get similar results from other Polaroid peel-apart film (possibly even from their Fujifilm equivalents...although they're water-based I think so drowning them in warm coffee may not be the best idea).

D, sorry to hear your transfers didn't work out so well. I haven't done any for a while, but hope to get some quality transfer time in over the Christmas break. Also, I have a pack of art paper for you as a thankyou for the starter pack you set me up with earlier in the year.

Love that 1st shot.  The peel apart print from 665 is quite nice.  The gloss of the fixer plays havoc with my scanner.  I have to remember to scan before fixing ;-)
