Alien World : 35mm Photographed, developed and printed in the darkroom
An abstract 35mm B&W film shoot, developed, and printed by me. I like digital photography a lot but film just has a look that sets into a different art form.
I created these by placing objects into a glass filled halfway with water and then lighting the whole thing up from underneath in the dark.
It takes a different kind of work to get abstract other worldly images without Photoshop.
These are part of a larger series of about 12, I present 4 here.
I did have a hard time photographing the paper prints in order to show them here. Some of the richness and details are missing, I apologize. They still present an interesting effect and I am still enjoying sharing them. The process of film is so different from digital.
These we shot with a very old Canon EOS film camera, one of the first of the EOS line. The lens is an old Sigma 100mm macro lens, but none of this really matters anymore.

Wow, your work is incredible! These regular objects definitely took on an "other worldly" form that many artists strive to replicate. I'm impressed. Take my upvote.
