I will post this here also. I frequent this board more frequently.

First picture out of many to come. Tell me what you think.

i think someone took a photo of a can of coke, and played around with it on photoshop..

i like it.

that's the thing though.

it's photoshop free

then how did you get that effect?

please tell, i think it looks great.

I took pictures on a roll of slide film. I used a Polaroid DayLab to make prints, but instead of letting the polaroid develop all the way, I took it apart and transfered it onto a piece of watercolour paper. This particular image is a double negative. I took a picture of a Cherry Coke can and a picture of a hat on a wood block and sandwiched them together and made the print. The reason you get that weird colours kind of border is because of the chemicals.

Anything you can do with chemicals you can do digitally. Chemical processing is becoming a thing of the past... they only do that for films nowdays because its faster. But digital processing is becoming faster, while chemicals will always require the same amount of time and work.

not really, Four Fingers... I'd like to see you make that same exact print with just the computer and the two negatives i used...

Sure. Give me the original and I'll do it.

Of course, it has to be about 720dpi. You know, because chemicals got the advantage of having an unlimited resolutio. Let's make it fair.

Hmmm, OK, but..............

C'mon Four Fingers, do you read your own posts?

I've seen hundreds of side by side comparisons with digital and film, and many are way too close to call, but have yet seen anything remotely resembling a well made Polaroid transfer.

Nice job sd, but probably belongs in either the photo or artwork thread

paddy joe, I don't see the problem. Studios can scan negatives in any resolution they want. Digital Cameras often have a sharper resolution than the one in old cameras.

I was merely asking sd to make it a fair game by providing me with a high-resolution digital version of the negative. This shouldn't be of any trouble for him. Don't you agree?

I do like the picture posted here. It's a neat composition.

It almost looks like it should be in tilted artwork, (cause it's a very artistic picture!!!) But I'd put it tilted Paranoia cause it looks like a ghost coke to me..... very scary!!!!

I think its a very neat picture. It almost looks like an advertisement you would see, trying to sell the product.

Very cool picture, even cooler knowing it isn't photoshopped.

it would be a mediocre shot if it was photoshopped, but i really like it since it isnt

nice pic dude ....but i don't do coke man....

i like 'em. Had some fun a few years ago with double exposures - took a pic of something, then took another pic over it of the inside of my woodstove. Have lots of pictures of people with their heads on fire.
