"Stairway No. 1"

This is a manipulated Polaroid SX-70 image. All manipulation done by

hand. Comments welcome. Thanx!

Well, it's a very interesting result. Maybe the subject is not my cup of tea, but this really looks like an hand-drawn painting.

Michael, it's a pity that Photoshop has converted this kind of painstaking work to the result of a couple of clicks. Ten years ago, I would have given it a 7 for originality. The same thing that has happened to mirrored printing and sabattier effects. It is still a very beautiful image with a somber mood.

very nice! do you mind explaining this technique a little further?

Great work. I think your brain is a store of unique creative ideas......Thanks.

Nice work, looks like an illustration.

Hi Micheal, and first of all thanks for your input on my quiery about slide film... I came around to see you portfolio and I have to say I really enjoy it.... your polaroid technique is really mastered... I particularly like this one which seem to come straight from the pages of a comic or from the story board of a film, great comp that gives the feeling that you're actually going up the stairs...

 

Bonne continuation

 

JB.
