I Took Pictures Of My Negatives With An Iphone And A Clip-On Macro Lens And Got A Pretty Cool Effect

ADVERTISEMENT

So, I developed my own film in a darkroom, (most of the photographs are just me testing functions and just playing around, this is just leisure for me) and though I know I could have scanned them or taken pictures of the prints I made, I decided to take pictures directly from the negatives over a makeshift Lightbox with just a macro clip-on lens, invert in photoshop and see what happens. Turns out I liked the final aesthetic (kinda gets into the toy camera/lomography style) and went with it. Enjoy.

    That's really nice, I love how soft it makes everything, and you're right about the pin hole camera feel. Consider some landscape images with a low f/stop from a high angle, I bet this will make the pin hole camera effect really stand out. Nice work with the subject matter too. makes it look gritty and this is a nice effect.
