Viva Transfer Art

Transferring instant film emulsion (emblazoned with slide film imagery) onto a variety of papers has piqued my interest as of late.  [CLICK ON ANY IMAGE TO ENLARGE]

More transfer art coming soon!

The technique has been refined--and I'm ready to show some more wares!  Check back in the next couple of days because I will be posting some Fuji instant film/Polaroid instant film transfer art.  Next on my list of films to try out for transfers/lifts is the Impossible Project Silvershade.

Scans coming SOON!  Viva instant film & the mighty Daylab!

LIGHTS: carnival by El Co

A night with the carnies:

Driving near El Camino a ferris wheel popped into view from out of nowhere...

so Huy Truong of Frenetic+Joy photography and I figured a visit to the carnies was in order.

 

I didn't quite understand why anyone would pay to go fishing or rubber ducks, but go figure...

...though witnessing the simple joy of riding a merry-go-round took me on a trip down memory lane.

This duo seemed to be enjoying a game of toss-and-hope...

...while this carnie extraordinaire was scaring plenty of up business with his balls, visible in hands...

...even though none of the customers I saw play were successful at winning a prize.

I hope you all have a great workweek, and enjoyed this past weekend.  Trust me--I'm dying to get my housing out into the ocean!  Or in very the least, to see the ocean.

Thanks all!

'tweener day

Here are some more shots taken with Fujifilm and my N90s housed in an SPL rig:

 Once again, Eric Ordorica's nonchalance and remarkably casual style--on the twin fin keel fish stick--shine bright.

These are from awhile back, I just recently found time to share them.  Again, sorry for the lack of consistent updates--I'm working towards becoming a full-time photojournalist, and my love for surf photography has to take a back seat from time to time.

Enjoy.
