What is Cross-Processing?
In digital photography, cross-processing involves manipulating the contrast and color balance of an image to produce the effect you see above. It orignated in a technique used with film chemistry. Below is a quote from John Beardswith, who expertly explains how it's done:
"Cross-processing is developing color print or slide film in the wrong chemicals — for example, color negative film in slide chemicals ("C-41 as E-6") or slide film by the color negative process ("E-6 as C-41"). Not surprisingly, this causes wild color and contrast shifts and requires lots of trial and error. But for a period in the 1980s and 1990s, cross-processed images were very much the vogue, with Nick Knight's fashion and studio work being arguably the most influential."

her hands usually scare me (cause theyre huge) but they worked beautifully for this shoot
Taken with a Nikon F4s film SLR using Ektachrome 64T tungsten white balance slide film, cross-processed as print film. So the colours are weird on purpose.
The cross processing does vile, vile things to skin tones, constricting the
dye gamut drastically and giving people this bizarre green solarization.
Sorry - this would have been a great shot if I had done it straight.
Maybe some day we will see Michael's pictures from that day.
Cross processing with color profiles can be a fun way to change the colors of a photo.
If you have too much time on your hands you can try changing the color profile of an image to one of the many that you have lying around in your computer, then save it and reload it without color management. With some profiles you will get some not so subtle changes to the colors.
The subtractive filter shows what happens when you subtract one profile from another. It interesting that it appears to be close to skin tones. I suspect like very old color television sets (some even had a flesh correction switch) that correct flesh tones were/are of major importance.
I was playing with the colouring of these and found they look pretty good in a black and white (David was right, who knew?). However, this black and white came about by changing the colouring to "cyanotype." Looks much better than actual "black and white."
AND I don't know how to add pics to my comments so I had to add them to the photostream....
As I was passing by these ladies I heard them say "handsome". I'd like to think they were talking about me.
