My sister just purchased this image from me. She does not spend money frivolously, as she will attest to on her blog The Green Baby Guide. Therefore, I feel somewhat honored by the fact that she chose my work to hang in her home.I named this one simply "Bicycle." I took the photo in Northwest Portland near where I work in the photo lab at Pro Photo Supply, Inc. I shot this on slide film which I cross-processed for the special effect of the color.
She ordered a custom size: 8x12. I'm hoping to deliver it to her tomorrow.
Thank you for the beautiful photo! But what does cross-processed mean?
ReplyDeleteCross-processing is a method of developing film in a different kind of chemistry than what is intended. This image was shot on slide film (positive film) which I processed in chemistry meant for negative film. That gave the image the cyan wash and somewhat altered, muted colors.
ReplyDeleteCool.
ReplyDeleteI think this one would also look really amazing in a HUGE format. Well, like, three feet by four-and-a-half feet or so.
