Oyster Picture Framing » photograph

I have been doing a bit of photography again.

Over the last six months I have returned to film photography, after 10 years of only shooting digital pictures. I thought I was getting lazy and did not consider what I was photographing well enough. So I have gone back to basics. I have made a couple of pinhole cameras and am really enjoying having to work with the limitations and qualities of both film and pinhole photography. I have now also dusted off my 35mm SLR camera and put a few rolls through that which has also been rewarding. You can see more of my efforts here www.scarland.com

A Challange part 1

A while ago a client brought in a little job for me. She had a set of 4 old photos in an old mount that she had found in a loft and she wanted them copied, retouched and reframed. This is what we had to work with.

and here is a close up

My challenge was to get the photos & mount copied and retouched, then recut the mount and reframe them. With the help of Alan Bond Photography we completed the job with amazing results. Over the next couple of days I am going to recreate the final result so you can see them side by side. Watch this space.
