FRAGMENTING

I love using a cut out to frame images to see them with a big white border, it some how brings them to life. Especially when you can't quite tell what is happening like in these. I have not put a copyright on them as the image is not mine but one taken from Times Travel Magazine (January 2009). I'm not clear on copyright when it comes to making images with found images.

BRIGHTON

Fuji Instax 200 with wide instant film.

FIBRE BASED PRINTING

I went to an printing workshop, so I took a negative (not the best one) and gave it a go. It creates some interesting effects and I learnt that it works best with negatives that would look good being printed with warm tone, as not all images look right with warm tones. I'm still learning.
