fred_defdef Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Do you like this macro photo? http://defdef.free.fr/Macro/ My technique is to insert the subject to scan between two peace of exposed negative film. I would like to build a pseudo slide holder to get better scan! freD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil_parker Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Very interesting! Is the noise or grain in the background from the film or scanner? I used to kill time back when I worked in a photolab years ago by sandwiching bugs like this and printing them as enlargements. I may give this a try w/ my old film scanner. Although that is closer to a mosquito than I care to get right now with Nile virus in Colorado! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_stuart Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 freD, Nice detail, but the scans look a little flat. Neat idea, I've never seen that done before. Anti-Newton glass slide mounts in 35mm are about US$0.35. They might make a damn good mount if your scanner has a slide carrier. I think I'll get some and try that. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred_defdef Posted August 16, 2003 Author Share Posted August 16, 2003 The cheat of négative I used was not really clean ! The awful backgroung is due to the both dusty film sandwich-ed ! I just add two pictures using my new pseudo-slides build from a destroyed cristal Cd case and a thin transparent plastic. I'm very happy with the wasp wings!

neil_parker Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 A bit of moire action in the wasp wings, just adds to the effect, I think this new art form deserves a new name, how about -scanograms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich815 Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Looks like things under a hobbyist microscope. I guess the thrill is the digital capture? Otherwise looks fairly ho-hum to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk_arts Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 I took self potraits with a large bed flatbed scanner then did a water transfer to art paper using Strathmore High Gloss. Welcome to digital alt. process! These images are now part of the Nicolasion Art Museums collection... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred_defdef Posted August 17, 2003 Author Share Posted August 17, 2003 I tried some sharpenning filter on my picture. With Success! Be careful to shift-reload to avoid the old picture from the navigator cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
