Thumb-up Thumb-up    from jschless/John (2,469) Send mail to this user on December 30, 2007 2:37:51 AM CST (1) Early critique

So, is this photoshopped or truly cross processed?

If you PSed this, then I think you still have things you can do to improve this. If it's chemically x-proc'ed, then it's good and I have nothing to say.

If it's been PS'ed: I like the top half of the photo. The colors, the silhouetting, the composition. I think you could crop out the bottom half or so, and improve the image. It's just too dim to attract or hold any attention, or strengthen the rest of the photo. I think it's a detraction from the good half of the photo.

But hey, the good half is good, and I think warrants 2TU.

Ok, change that -- crop out the bottom 1/3, not 1/2.

Actually, this is just how Solaris film is. It's standard C41 film processed in C41 chemicals, and it looks like this. No CP involved. I see what you mean about the crop, but I like the angle the snow on the bottom provides (even though I'm starting to think the fact that it's very, very dim makes it warrant a crop). Thanks.

Interesting. I enjoy shooting with my trusty Holga, but I've never tried anything beyond the typical films my camera store carries. One of these days I'll branch out -- maybe try a roll of Solaris.
