I’ve been telling myself for months that I was going to try the process of bleaching and reclaiming fuji instant (basically polaroids made by fuji) negatives to scan.  The gist of it is that when you peel the polaroid apart you have the print and the ‘gooey’ side, which most would throw away.  Well that gooey side actually contains a negative that can be ‘reclaimed’ and scanned for some really awesome effects and killer quality (much greater quality than the actual print).  The other great part is that, as a photographer, you can give the print to your clients there on the spot but still get a chance to scan them to show off on your blog.  So this weekend I broke out the bleach and an excellent tutorial by my friend Joey (HERE) and set to it.  These are some of my first attempts…the colors are a little funky, but hey, that’s half the point!  I’m really enjoying these…ready to bleach some more so keep an eye out.
