My blog, although I don’t see myself as a blogger but as a Photographer I will try to blog some interesting material during the weeks.
Expect at least 2 updates a week.

Pim van der Maden at Oord 2014

Every year in Emmeloord there is Oord.
A cool festival where the half of Emmeloord (and other people :D) can be found, loads of people showing art, poetry, music etc. This year also our neighbor and good friend (and awesome photographer) Pim van der Maden was there with his 8×10 Polaroid camera.

 

Today a few images of Pim in action.

When polaroid goes bad….

One thing you know when shooting with Polaroid or Impossible film is that…. well actually you don’t know anything for sure. Sure over time the emulsions have been a lot better but when you shoot something that is way over date it’s always a surprise.

 

On our visit in Vienna a year ago I bought some Impossible film BW for the RZ-67ProII and finally got the chance to shoot the film a while ago, to my disappointment the images were very bad, way to bright and I almost threw them away however… and here comes the tip for today. DON’T throw away something that doesn’t look right. We all know the show CSI right?
Well with photography you can do a lot of those tricks…. well ok we can’t blow up from a security cam to 60MP to see the DNA from a burglar, but we can do a lot with the images and create something that I think is interesting.

 

Here you see the results from the scans I made from the polaroids, all settings were done with Silverfast studio scanning software.
