Summer in Vienna, Filmphotography Tricks: Anti-Scheimpflug and cross-processing
Hard to imagine these summer vibes!
This work combines two of the most intense effects you can produce on film.
The cross-processing is responsible for the unusual colours and contrasts, and the
Anti-Scheimpflug makes for a weird plane of focus that makes everything seem like toys.
Here you have an explanation of the Scheimpflug principle:
It basically means that you can tilt the lens in relation to the film. If you inverse
that principle you will arrive at freelensing, which will give you a minimal area of focus,
like in the picture of Vienna. This is responsible for the toy-like look.
Then I add another effect by using an old slide film, processing it like it was negativ film:
cross-processing. The results are colour shifts and contrasts that, if printed as a vibrant
c-Print, add to the impression of an otherworldly picture.
Good Gosh! Never knew photography seems like nuclear physics!!
No wonder I could never be good at it!
That toy like effect was quite astounding!
I am an artist and a tech-nerd, so this work is cut out for me ;)
and basically it is quite simple.
Lens like this:
focus like this:
Wow! I wish I were your apprentice!
That giant lens is too heavy for me to handle!! And too expensive as well!! LoL

up! great result, i like it. I am a big fan of x-processing, but... use it only digitally. I am not into analog anymore (used to use it in 80-es when I was teen, but never printed the pics myself. not sure if it is to good or to bad...)
did you print it yourself?
Ihm, frankly, I didnt understand how you recived the other ('toy') effect. you need a dedicated tilt-shift lens for it, right? i ve hear they are quite expensive and you cannot make them yourself..
I am printing this all by myself. Right now I am in the middle of setting up a colour darkroom for large format printing.
For me the lens tilt is very easy; I am working on large format cameras where it is normal that one can tilt the lens...
hmm. i am fascinated to hear this. large format cameras - is it your job? or you do it for yourself..
I've done it commercially ~15 years ago. Since then I've become a 'free' photographer, selling my work through exhibitions.
The last 5 years I took time off from selling and developed my work further. End of next year I'll look at the markets again. Now I am doing a lot of research about where to find acceptable galleries, collectors and possible buyers, but I will try to keep away from too much smiling and friendlyness... I hope my work is good enough for that!
you are a great person, then; I am honored to be acquainted with you. (no, really!). I could not but ask, are fond of monochrome photography as well?
I am a master fine art printer for black and white, especially gallery prints on fiber based paper. But personally I prefer to work in colour :)
I love colour works very much!
why I asked -- I do appreciate great works of b-w too. would be intrested to watch yours, if you have something out there.
