I had never heard the term Dutch Angle before, I probably would have described it as wonky. I have never set out to take a wonky picture before. I probably would have made the subject wonky if I thought it would help. So today was an interesting experiment.
Colors have been an existential crisis lately.
Lately I've been on a film emulation kick, and it feels like everything I touch ends up all filmulated, and way too trendy. I'm wondering if there's a way to buck this.
This photograph is somewhere in the middle. While I definitely shot for something a little more vintage, but at the same time I wanted an extreme effect.
I've been realizing the thing I love the most is innovation. I really want to do everything in a new way, even colors.
An experiment with expired film
Shot on PC 400 (President's Choice), a supermarket branded film from The Real Canadian Superstore, unknown expiry, rated at ISO/ASA 100. The canister says product of the Netherlands, but from the DX code 005783, this appears to be Fujicolor Superia 400.
Since this roll of film was expired, I decided to experiment with the developing process, so I soaked or "souped" the film in orange pekoe tea with lemon for 14 hours before developing. By accident, I had not twisted and locked the developing tank all the way, so after the developer, the tank top came off as I was pouring out the water used to wash/stop the developer; however, I don't think this affected the outcome much.
I can see a bit of red in some shots, but all other colours were washed off. I might try again, even with fresh film, and less time in the soup, with possibly other "cooking" ingredients.

This is my friend, Emily. We decided to purchase some confetti from Dollarama and experiment with it. Unfortunately, it was freezing (can't really tell from these pics LOL) so we didn't take pictures for too long :s Hoping for warm, spring weather some time this week so we can redo this experiment!
This is an experiment on editing color. Today I am going to do a course on Elements, hope it will rub off as I feel I lag a lot of knowledge there.
I am one of these city girls who takes the car for every thing, so I can only dream of cycling, but this is also due to extreme workpressure.

Camera toss. No Photoshop manipulations - only adjusting brightness
Part of a multi-photographer experiment using a graphic target as a source.
Right partner, here is what I came up with - but feel free to bring me to a grinding halt if it doesn't rock your boat. A square in a square sort of block in bright colours (and let's not forget a wee bit of HR). If you like I can do a couple more. If not, back to the drawing board. And do you prefer the navy or grey Essex linen for the background. I know what I prefer but this is about you, not me.
Not to be outdone by Nikon Nigel I present my heavily cropped slightly photoshopped splash experiment. I can take no credit for the set up and flash trigger that helped create this.

An experiment - and a short break from the gloom of the winter Gormleys ...
I recently found an interesting link on *kday*'s page to the Orton technique. It looked like a nice soft effect so I thought I'd give it a go. I know I haven't got it quite right yet, but I think it might be worth experimenting more.
But I'm still not sure ...
What do you think?

... I downloaded this free texture a few days ago and forgot where I found it. If you recognize your texture... please tell me so I can give you the credits for it :-)
Because I was a teacher, 95% of my 'work' (LOL!) falls into 'experiments','doodles',or demonstrations.
Only on extremely rare occasions have I set out to do a piece of work with serious intent. The nine Fruit of the Spirit hangings fall into this last category. You can see them in my Church banners set if you are interested. see here www.flickr.com/photos/16054928@N07/albums/72157625102416370
This above was a demonstration/experiment, one of many "Blind leading the Blind" experiences so familiar to my pupils: we all enjoyed the frisson of 'Miss' not having a clue what she was doing, as it was for the first time!
