Here is this week's picture :
My experimentations with Polaroid 59 in the last few has been very interesting, and I've come across a problem inherent to the process : Darker areas of the image, like the hair here, have a tendency to "stick" to the negative, and not transfer properly to the paper. The photo shoot which gave this image started as another concept entirely, with various clothes as the subject, but the darker areas of the clothes tended to stick, and so the images are not very usable, and I did one nude, and it gave a good result, so I've finished to shoot with nudes.
I've also determined that the best paper for my polaroid transfer in Hot Pressed watercolor paper, there seems to be not many varieties of this paper, and in the size I am using, only Arches offer proper paper...
Hope you like it ! |
