Polaroid Transfers

A while ago, I had talked about loving the look of Polaroid Transfers. Well, after learning everything I could, getting some of the equipment, and experimenting a whole lot. . . here are some that I've completed.

I'm still getting better. But I'm pretty happy so far.

I just realized that by the time I see one of these pictures on my computer screen it is a picture of a picture of a picture of a picutre of a picture (the original, then the polaroid then the elnargement then the digital then the web version. Wow).

Actually, by the time you see it. . .
It's a digital shot first with my digital camera. Then I put it into photoshop, and fix it up a little. The send that file to a place that turns it into a slide. Then I use that slide to print onto a polaroid in an enlarger. Then I transfer the developing chemicals to wet watercolor paper. Then I scanned that in. Then I cropped and color corrected in photoshop. Then I publish to the web.

So. . .. its a picture, of a picture, of a picture, of a picture, of a picture, of a picture, of a picture, of a picture of a picture. . .

I'm done some without digital camera too, and then you lose 2 of those "of a picture" steps.

Very nice Jason, I never take time to post but I've been meaning to say you are quite good at the photography and such.
