Images of mistakes - good or bad..

LOL!

I have a nephew who never allowed a pic. I caught him one day to the delight of his mother. DSLR and long lens.

Thanks Randy. There is a lot of negotiation before any photo is taken. He wasn't too excited about the whole thing. Look at his left hand in this one:

Didn't see it until now.

Paper neg, either the paper wasn't properly submerged in the dev tray (although I used the same qty and trays as usual, and rocked like a good 'un).
Or the water in my holding bucket was too warm and degraded the coating or emulsion.

Or both of course. Nine paper negs, all with defects - which I quite like...

double exposure by mistake...

I am happy about it though..

I picked up this Vericolor 4111 on ebay about a year ago now and just got around to testing it. This shot was developed in some of my friend's expired C41 chemicals, which is most likely the cause of the odd colors. There also appear to be some issues with either my agitation or enough coverage of the chemicals. Regardless, it is an interesting effect.

Maybe I did it again...
The first image I made twenty years ago - still life - bleached - selenium toned - hand colored... kind of loved it...
The second one I made a year ago and now as a print on glass...
By accident I placed the glass image on top of the still life, and the third image emerged...
So now I have actually cut the still life to make it fit the glass..
That hurt..
But that is what "Kill your Darlings" is all about.. it has to cost something..
It is like a marriage og two aras and images...Edit: forgot I also made this versions by "mistake" as I put the image on an old 40+ year table with all kinds of paint remains on it...
So now I have three versions of this motive..

Here is one of my favorite errors. The curiosity is that one shot was in Germany and the other was in France.

Both from yesterday. One where the building is literally getting sucked into the lens vortex, and another where the film was folded over in the film holder.
