I do like the look of these pictures and they even have the effect of
turning ordinary objects into art.
On the other hand it seems like a lot of work. Somewhere there is a
digital PP filter that could do something like this.
So I applaud your willingness to take all these steps and thanks for
sharing.

I decided to work with another pack of film in the Polaroid SX-70 this week, trying The
Impossible Project "PX-70 Silver Shot" B&W film. Only eight exposures in all
for one pack ... makes you think. I decided to play with small scale still life stuff ...
just experimenting still.
Slide show of eight images:

To scan them efficiently proved a bit of a challenge as the prints tend to curl
and jump around as you try to position them on the scanner platen. I came up
with a neat system using a little piece of tape with a folded over corner and a
jig to position them on the platen in a registered position ... once I had that
worked out, I set up the parameters in VueScan and standardized the exposure so
it only took ten minutes to scan all eight at 1600ppi.
I like the way this camera and film images ...!
Comments are always appreciated. Thanks for looking.
Godfrey
