Here We Are Again

Made with a "Leader" camera. This particular plastic camera is sort of a Diana DeLuxe clone and holds its place as one of the most truly awful image-making devices known to mankind.
But I love a challenge and I did seem to tame the endless lightleaks. :)

Plastic Fantastic VII Show

Two of my images will be in the upcoming Plastic Fantastic VII show at the LightBox Photographic Gallery in Astoria, Oregon.
The images are "Italian Garden #22" (the one with the hands) and "Man of the Sea". "Italian Garden #22" was made with a Holga camera and "Man of the Sea" is a double-exposed selfie(!) made with a Diana clone camera known as a Traceflex.
Susan Burnstine is the annual juror for this show which will open on June 11 and run through July 6.
I am honored that this is my seventh consecutive year in this show which is always a favorite of mine.

Through Leaves (Kozo paper version)

A print on kozo paper from a Diana camera clone called an "Anny". In addition to the texture of the paper, there's some additional background texture from the paper backing and from film development. I let this roll of Shanghai film sit around undeveloped for more than a year and room light apparently was enough to fog the film (causing the cheap paper backing to transpose itself onto the film). I also discovered that this film does not like being stand developed in Rodinal and as an added bonus curls like no other film that I have ever used before.
Nonetheless, I'm still happy with the image.

Emulsion lift onto stone paper

Original shot with a Diana camera clone called an "Anny". This has somehow become my test image for transfers. I flipped the image again this time.

Beach Day transfer to aluminum

Another older image reincarnated as an ink transfer onto aluminum roof flashing. The original was shot with a Diana camera clone called an "Anny" camera. I also rotated the original image which can be found here.
