Just a thread for random thoughts and comments which don't necessarily need their own thread.
E.g. - I went for a walk yesterday and finished the films in three different cameras. Thought I would finish four but the 120 in the Holga was actually on 6 and not 9. 1x Provia, 1x Fujicolor, 1xFP4+.

I haven't used colour film since a friend gave me a few expired rolls, some years ago, and I was surprised at the processing cost. These days I stick to monochrome.

I haven't used colour film since a friend gave me a few expired rolls, some years ago, and I was surprised at the processing cost. These days I stick to monochrome. You could still do colour photos though. I have (just a minute ago) made my first trichrome image. This one started as a digital photo as I am testing the editing process, but the theory is you take three shots on B&W, one each with red, green, and blue filters. Then in Photoshop (Gimp in my case) combine as three layers, colourising each layer to the respective filter colour, and voila! Colour photo from mono film. In this test case I took a phone photo, then in Snapseed applied red filter mono conversion, exported, back to original, applied the other two filters in turn, and then combined in Gimp. Here we go... Attachment DeletedObviously there's lots of fiddling to be done with regard to tone, saturation and so on, but I am quite happy with that, and how little time it took to produce. With film I'd stick the camera on a tripod so aligning the layers should be relatively easy, though obviously not as easy as when all 3 files are the same originally. |
