Am I walking to the stairway to heaven or sth? Nice Rob

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Every nice Rob! Love the dreamy feel to it.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, gents. Never quite sure exactly what you are pointing at with this camera, the Instax 210. I had the bridge right in the centre of the frame....Quite like it where it came out, though, so can't complain. The camera knows better than I do.

Lovely murky look to this Rob. Love the blurry highlights.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Pete.

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

More blur. works very well Rob. Another top notch Pic.

 

[Paul Lange]

That is wonderful and mysterious.

but stay away from the light, Rob. Stay away!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, guys.

 

[Matthew McKendry]

Very atmosphereic and a bit mysterious yes, a nice effect!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Mathew. I like atmospheric images.

 

[Peter McCullough]

Very nice Rob, mystical bridge takes you to.............??? Great artistic photography Sir.

 

[Shane Johns]

The processing is great Rob - I know some people don't like the thought of editing but I love it. Nik is your friend

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks guys. When it comes to the Instax or Polaroid instant prints, I love the object, and look at a few of them daily for inspiration. But a scanned version never does it justice. So I feel that the scanned version is a new thing, and I treat it like any other digital shot - game for editing to give a new thing in itself. I still like looking at the originals.

 

[Brian Moore]

Saw this on Facebook Rob and I love it. Moody and atmospheric so it is. And your compositional choice of placing the bridge just left of center is pure genius. (OK, so the camera made that choice. I don't care.)

 

[Rob MacKillop]

We are as one, Brian, the Instax and Me. Rarely in the history of photography has a photographer and camera been so indistinguishable

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Ooo that's nice Rob - would make a great album cover, very atmospheric

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Crossed my mind too, Chris. Cheers.

aliens. definitely aliens. whatever you do, don't follow the light, it'll only lead to a probing. great combo with the colors and light, and it even has some mckillop softness in there too.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

I could do without the propping, right enough...that MacKillop softness couldn't cope with it!
