Try your hand at film. The entire process. THAT is an art and a craft. Any fool can press a button, move a mouse and a slider. I know because I can do it (Both film user and self acclaimed digital fool)

Anyway, I was just messing about and thought there must be a market for giant "exclusive" prints of this stuff. Either go mass-market and sell zillions via Ikea or print out a couple of 8ft square whoppers to sell to Russian oligarchs for a few million a piece.
Just for fun, what do you think?

I need to get myself a macro lens soon.... ;D ;D ;D
+1 to that! I develop black and white film on the floor of my bathroom, and every time it's finished I'm thrilled with the results. It's true that I don't look dignified while I'm doing it though...crasher8 said:Try your hand at film. The entire process. THAT is an art and a craft.

It doesn't quite fit the definition of abstract art, in that it needs to be something that's not really recognisable for what it is. But as long as we're all having fun I suppose it doesn't matter how you want to define it.serendipidy said:OK...I'll bite. Don't know if this counts as abstract or not ???
