Nostalgia
My first pic with Impossible Project's SILVER SHADE UV+ ! ....the rest from the roll didnt turn out so good, but once I got the hang of how to adjust the exposure on my OneStep 600 Polaroid I got this pic. Its an experimental film so it produces unexpected results in focusing, exposure, etc. The tones in this photograph evoke that silvery luster that make Kenji Mizoguchi's films UGETSU and SANSHO DAIYU so eerily memorable. Something to explore.
The Beginning of Something
Attempted some very rudimentary color filters with marker scribbled on clear-ish plastic placed over the lens of my Polaroid spectra camera. My hope was to get a pink effect using a red filter against the white snow, but the sloppiness of my application of the filter (merely taped on the surface) and the murkiness of the plastic led to almost unintelligible imagery and far too substantial a tint. A lesson to be carried into the next attempt. Dont rush creativity!!!!
