Description i originally submitted this image as a faux polaroid. it was fun, but i like the original image better - as i took it.

these are my kids fishing in the canals from our holiday on the gold coast

shot with a 10mm using a circ polariser. no post production.

enjoy

I do enjoy. Lots. I love the splash of sunlight in your daughter's hair and across both of their arms. It's so subtle.

attack-kitten [2007-06-04 06:21:42 +0000 UTC]

the polaroid effect is somewhat dampened by the fact that the image on my screen is considerably larger than a real polaroid! unless they make em bigger down there

nah, we have them the same size here - hmmm. imagined it scanned and enlarged that way

true. sometimes we are inundated with so much art here i forget to give a picture the time it deserves.

thank you for giving my photos that time

I like the textural effect of the noise in the polaroid. It works with this image - the beauty and innocence of the kids.

Star-buck In reply to lightandshadow [2007-05-23 12:59:50 +0000 UTC]

I think I might have given it away!!! (the camera) I didn't really get into photography until about a year ago. I did a little in high school but I was always more of a painter/drawer. I think I was like "blah I don't need this old polaroid camera"......
Now I want it. haha. Maybe it will turn up when I move. Thank goodness for digital ....We can simulate them, at least!

lightandshadow In reply to Star-buck [2007-05-23 13:28:00 +0000 UTC]

in all honesty - now that this photoshop action has come to light i am happy to not buy a polaroid - the film is pricey and i don't have to carry the damn thing around looking for that perfect polaroid moment.

i think most people bought polaroids for photos they did not want printed down at the local photo lab

Star-buck In reply to lightandshadow [2007-05-23 13:35:54 +0000 UTC]

hehehe. yeah the film is pricey. but they are fun to take and tack up to the bulletin board! (not the nasty ones!!!LOL)
