brought to you by the world's worst very large format camera

something about my setup creates wicked vignetting with a long horizontal line of good exposure (im guessing the shape is due to the scanning head being a line)

the lens being adapted is the lens from my overhead projector. i learned a nice bit about optics putting it all together based on intuition, took a few hours of fiddling to get to this current setup

oh wow, that's stunning. very beautiful rendering, this is the largest proper large sensor picture i've seen in a while

adjusting levels in gimp, we can see than the lenses actually let much more details come through & the result is mesmerizing

edit: i assume that's what you mentioned as vignetting, but i didn't expect quite as much coverage

and that finishes what we started back in october. there's various other photoshoots i've been avoiding touching but I think I'm ready to get em done now.

coming back to this shoot with a better idea of how to edit it

redgraph can really be foul huh

without a prominent red in the scene getting the balance right between the two shots is very vibes

what is a redgraph? it's one photo taken with a red filter, one with no filter, then the difference between the two becomes the green and blue layers and the red one is the red layer. then a little bit more editing and voila, it's horrifying! for extra fun i took a buncha redgraphs without a tripod so everything has that anaglyph 3d eyesore to it!

its like a trichrome without the tri part?? it's a less-involved and more loose version of a thing I did nearly a year ago: https://streak.club/p/56991/trichrome-by-999999999

image #3 with bouba has some masking stuff going on to bring out midgrey detail in the environment but still keep her fur contrasty black and white im proud of the result
