There are a large number of people planning to shoot vintage (historic?) Kodak brownie cams for the #ShittyCameraChallenge. Needs a sub-tag, like the #Emulsionliftgang and the #ThermalPrintSquad: #BigBrownieCrew? #ShittyBrowniesForAll? #CardboardCameraChallenge #TeamShittyBoxCam #BoxCamChamps

A little quartet to lift today. (Yes, of course I should be working, why would you ask that?) #polaroid #PolaroidLift #EmulsionLift #emulsionliftgang

Today I made these example lifts ahead of taking commissions to make #EmulsionLift images from buyers’ own photos. Would love to hear any ideas from the #PolaroidLift #emulsionliftgang especially around marketing, pricing. Thoughts?

First daffodil of spring.

Gotcha.

Lifted on Taylor’s gotcha day from SX-70 photo taken a week earlier. Original was shot too far away with a close-up lens and already had spots where emulsion didn’t stick.

Parking lot sunset.

Emulsion lift from digital photo printed on iType from Polaroid Lab.

First attempt at emulsion lifts; by the last one, getting better results — though I do like some of what’s going on in that first. Just not sure how much was due to me learning, since the material behaved so differently each time.

I’ve wanted to try for a while, and now’s the time; I’ve run out of my backlog of Polaroids and these illustrate why. Had surgery to have bones in my foot fused, a screw and plate installed; unable to put weight on it, and mostly confined to part of the house for the past six weeks.

Working from X-rays provided by the doctor, printed on a Polaroid Lab on i-Type film. Paper is high-cotton, but not exactly watercolor paper.
