atz edge cut

Last week The Impossible Project put up for sale some mega cheap SX-70 Artistic TZ Film, £8 per pack. Because it was edge cut film, and had a big chance of being slightly ruined. I took my chances seeing as though they only had about 500 for sale and were counting down untill they went on sale. It was a limit of 5 packs per customer. I went on their shop website just before they went on sale, and of course the website crashed as soon as they were up for grabs! I luckily grabbed 5 packs of the stuff, and in 10 minutes they were sold out. Now I've had a play with ATZ film, I love it. And am not looking forward to having to pay full price for it after I run out. Heres what I've taken so far...

old film, finally developed

more px600

she's dead, wrapped in plastic

When I was at college I feel like I was maybe a bit more creative and probably enjoyed more creepy and sinister shoots. Like these few images I've posted. Some were for projects but most just for fun/for myself.

I miss it, and look forward to a lot more creative shoots in the future, I just need some willing models :)

through the viewfinder

I've been looking through some of my older photographs and found some I took probably about 2-3 years ago. I cant remember where it was but we always used to drive up there for picnics. I tried some 'through the viewfinder' shots. Digital shot through my 35mm Vivitar slr. I find them quite dreamy and wanted to post them as I didnt put many on flickr...

PX 600 Silver Shade

So, I havent posted in a little while because I got a new (shit) job and have been working my butt off. But I recieved an amazing treat through the post... New Polaroid PX 600 film.

So after work one night last week I went to the beach to try out one shot, I taped the box the film came in onto the front of the camera where it shoots out the film so it wasnt exposed to any light, left it for 2 minutes to develop and heres what I got....

I'm pretty pleased with my first ever shot! Cant wait to go somewhere and take more, I'm not wasting any, as you only get 8 exposures!!!

beach

I always moan about hating where I live, because it is shit. But I don't think I could live far away from a beach, its not the greatest but it's nice to know its only a 5-10 minute drive away.

re-scanned cross processed negatives

I decided to re-scan some of my black and white negatives that I never had time to print in college, and ended up scanning in alot of my old cross processed film that I had had processed and printed commerically and then just scanned the print.

I'm so suprised at the quality of colour and brightness that my scanner (CanoScan 8800F) is capable of doing from negatives.

So here are some of those images, including a long lost image that they decided never to print for me assuming it wasnt worth it!

^long lost image^

I will of course be uploading my re-scans of old black and white film in due course, including some that I've never even seen myself!
