It is amazing to me that the grunge look has taken off like it has. hard to think of it being done in a darkroom. looks pretty easy for a digital in PS. I really like the semi soft saturation enhancments that the Holga does. Loma, still trying to figure it out but from what i found a few images that claim to be loma. they look very contrasty and saturated. very neat Juanita, thanks for the link

I thought I was the only one around that liked this type of photography.  When I get a chance, I'll post a few images from some similar ideas I was working on about 10 years ago on film. |

Most of it is fascinating and oddly beautiful stuff, Juanita. So much of it reminds me of the images from the horror movie, The Ring. I'd like to try my hand at it, too. Haven't been able to try it when I'm helping models build their portfolios or high school kids with their senior portraits... though that might be a new trend in senior portraits, at least the shots intended for the kid's friends. Parents would demand their money back!  At first glance, it doesn't seem like it would require third-party software. Someone in the old boards did this with dried coffee spills on paper scanned into a transparent layer. Some heavy vignetting and desaturation on top of the dirty layer and you've got the grunge! |

Photography is all about finding your personal style. You are obviously good at doing pictures in this manner, and it seems like you really like it as well. This will make for nothing but enjoyment of photography. Explore your boundaries with these techniques and have fun!!!
