I've posted this and another in the gallery...I love the look of polaroid transfers, such beautiful images can be made from that technique. For those who have never heard of it...it's simply taking the emulsion side of a polaroid instant pic and transfering the emulsion onto another type of paper, usually watercolor paper. Unfortunately I don't have the equipment needed to try my hand at it right now...so I'm trying to see if I can replicate that look with Photoshop. I think it's close but may still need a bit of work, my own personal thought is that the edging is a start but the main part of the pic needs some scratching up and fading. I'm going to keep working on this...and when finances allow I may go out and buy myself that polaroid camera.

I am, therefore I create.......
