I love the irony of capturing digital with film...

Now that I understand the "caution zone stripes" better,  the picture is even more intriguing- particularly the torn bucket handle. It seems undicided wether it belongs to the right or to the left. Caution zone ! Deception !

Fantastic Rog. I don´t have an inclination to Prussia as a concept, but the color --if it is prussian blue-- is great.

very good and very weird. You achieve this by reversing the film so that the antihalo-layer faces the lens ?

Antonio, very nice shots. For me they transport the mood of the early Pasolini-films. In the background I hear a tune of Morricone...

Yes, that's correct. The technique is referred to as 'Redscale', or Redscalling. 

Redscaled films can be purchased, eg Rollei Redbird, but DIY is easy using a darkbag, a pair of scissors and some sticky tape.

Hello Suede,

Nice photo.

It could not have been that good of a time. Nobody cleaned up. Sad

Best Regards,

Michael

So right, Michael; utterly reprehensible, the lack of civic sense!

This was taken on the morning of New Year's day 2019 on the banks of the Elbe River in Hamburg.

A few classics in the first shot: a old Fiat Panda, a Saracen tower integrated in a more modern building and a little WWII bunker.

If you travel in Patagonia, you´ll see a lot of ice. This iceberg floats on Lago Grey, two days  walking from the Torres del Paine. On the day we arrived there, it was drizzling, windy and--near a huge glacier, cold. We were glad when the boat arrived.

The color of the ice is really incredible!

This discussion has me wondering how B&W film would behave if exposed through the antihalation layer. Something I'll try in due course, no doubt, since I like experimenting with film. (Options: using ISO 400 film expose at 100 and develop at 400, or expose at 400 and push 2 stops.)

Anyone tried reverse exposure as described?

Notice here what happens with editing out the readily recognizable elements--the bucket handle, the electrical outlet--and moving the composition from a 3D perspective view to 2D flat color field abstraction. Still, the caution zone stripes intrude and create a dimensional 3D aspect, but it's artificial--or is it?--and catches the sensibility off guard, calling attention to the fact that this is manipulated space, albeit with pronounced textures that evidence photo-realism. In the color field abstractions I've been studying, I have tried to underplay textures to privilege colors themselves. I am intrigued by the notion of "transparency" and its implications and how this notion might be metaphorically visualized in art and photography. This is not something that Albers entertained beyond his teachings in color interaction. In critical circles, today, transparency envelops concerns that have to do with individuals' transparency in public and the rights to privacy eroded by data mining. Granted, it's an abstract arena, but there are very real issues being staked out with concerns over transparency protocols, Googlization, merchandising of personal data, preferences, and history.

Yes, blue is an alluring linchpin in our palette; Prussian blue, Cerulean blue, cobalt blue, manganese blue, French ultramarine, and then there's Prussian green, thank you Winsor and Newton.
