Geraniums are now blooming
(above in Erin's garden and in mine below)
Geraniums are important to me, since I am one?
Some of you know why I am a geranium ... but if not, see a quick explanation here.
Today I am identifying with this little geranium bud ...
late to bloom ... but thinking about it.
Ever have days like that?
Have you seen a Polaroid Emulsion Lift?

A few years ago I took an all day class and
tried Polaroid emulsion lifts for the first time.

An emulsion lift (or emulsion transfer) is when the emulsion layer is removed from a sheet of instant film and then transferred to a different surface.

So I experimented, using old photos and art work ...

Many steps, and when you finally
pull off the lift it is very fragile.

Many in class used water on the surface to further smooth the image, I liked the randomness of how it landed originally.

I like the sheerness, wrinkles and all.

For some this might be an acquired taste?

I made 10 one of a kind cards, not to sell,
and so far, I've shared only with a few.
I realize, not everyone's taste, but I love it.
Just because ...

Polaroid Emulsion Lift seems to be rather difficult. Never seen it before but I like the results you achieved without using water to smooth the image. Jacki, I also like the old photos you used. They bring us back to old times and all the dear ones we loved.
Thank you again, Elenor. Yes the Polaroid lift is difficult, and also since the Polaroid is not on the market much, it was hard to get the film. I like the chance part of it and like you, the old photos.
There is an icy-ness about this piece that makes it so unusual.
Thanks, John. Yes, not is my palette very often?
