Shot these films last summer but I was busy doing the kitchen. Developed today, all Fuji Neopan 400. Left set is from a John's Canonet G-III QL1.7 - working well. On the right a set from an eBay Olympus XA2 - rubbish. Some you win, some you lose. I'll scan them later and upload a few.
This flickr account was set up to store the negatives I buy at ebay, antique shops, flea markets, etc. I scan or photograph the negatives, process them, and then post them here. I enjoy discovering and revealing these images that otherwise might be lost.
This painting's from my 'Negative' collection. It's acrylic on canvas and is quitea large piece, the canvas has been backed on to a larger white canvas to create a frame/border (this is not visible on the image above. This collection was inspired by the memories of someone who had lost a loved one and these were the most important places for them where they went and visited during this difficult time. These locations held alot of memories for this person sad and happy ones but I decided to paint these in a photo negative style to portray the feelings of loss and sadness which were the prominent feelings associated with these locations at the time. I felt painting these places in their true pallet would extract the mood and depth that was needed for this body of work.
