Sixteen Polaroid lifts made over the last few days. A few minor emulsion tears & flecks of white developer amongst them. Hey ho!

Two new photography books arrived this week - initial impressions are very positive.

Huge surf Porthcurno
As big as I've seen it there - absolutely magical to watch from the safety of the viewpoint by the Minack Theatre.
Late December 2012.

Something weird has happened in the upper clouds when resizing & switching to sRGB - they haven’t got the purple hue on the original file.

Lizard sun
A graphical Autumn sunrise, shot from the outlook adjacent to the Minack Theatre with the Lizard visible on the LH horizon.

I seem to remember that this was the last I saw of the sun for several days...!

At it again, 8 more Polaroid lifts completed. Some are better than others, but that’s the nature of the process.
This shows swirling water to try to remove flecks of white developer after peeling off the back. The emulsion separates soon after, using the brush to gently part stubborn corners.

Four Polaroid lifts I’ve done today onto some textured inkjet watercolour paper I was given many years ago, hence buckling after getting wet. Need to flatten them now.
I used a Polaroid Lab machine to transfer images from iPhone to the B&W film.
You cut edges off print after it’s developed, peel away back and then immerse in warm water. The image lifts away, then you need to attach to paper & smooth out.

Aspens and snow capped mountains - Approach to Bodie
One of the things I'd wanted to photograph but didn't manage whilst on my USA road trip was a stand of Aspens from close up. They're so photogenic. The have beautiful bark, trunks and at this time of year, golden foliage. Like here, I only ever saw them in the distance. Another time, hopefully.
The mountains are the northern part of Yosemite, where I'd left the valley in the dark and fog, getting to Tioga Pass for sunrise.

September sunrise - Otter Rocks
Just a tiny pinprick of the sun was visible yesterday as it rose above the distant cliffs East of Sidmouth before disappearing behind the cloud bank. In the absence of wellies, I'd been pushed up the beach by the rising tide from my previous viewpoints.
