Scans

My scanner is currently my favourite imaging device. It gives me digital convenience while giving me rather exotic images that I like. It's very abstract due to the inherently 2d image. I never know what comes out of the scanner and post processing, it makes it really fun. (:

My 2nd sis's piggy bank on Superia 800 film. The emulsion is too dense I can't get the colour out onto the scanner. Heh, well, sepia works for me.

Colour inversion helps me get the "correct" colour on the film emulsion. It makes the image funky and cool though. I've only tried this recently cause' I used to crop frames out before inverting the colours.

I tried to do a "open-top" scan which I use to scan my film in the morning. This was taken at night thus the blackness of it all. This one isn't colour inverted. Well, the room was bright with lights as far as my eyes could tell. Now we see how incredible our eyes are at compensating brightness level. Well... I found a method to negate this compensating mechnism. I can accurately call the exposure of a scene within 1/2 EV step - so far. hehe, I'm a living light meter. This scan looks like a good mystery to me.

Mmm, my favourite. Love the dramatic effect on the narrow road the scan has given. I used a pen light to brighten up this scan at the film area.

Mm, new projects coming up would be film stressing. Yes, literally stressing the film out. Well, that might take till Nov 14 before commencement. hehe. Do check in once in awhile for unplanned updates like this though.
