citrus beach
Scratched negatives, cross processing, accidental double exposures. These are the magic and spontaneity of using film. The little mistakes or slips that create unique works of art.
In this digital age, where do we find such wonderful mistakes? Recently James took this photo of me jumping around on the beach.
The memory card corrupted and we were left with a strange hot pink band across most of the image. My first reaction was “what a shame” but I quickly fell in love with it and had a play. Probably because it stood out from the 50 other ‘perfectly good’ images.

this is so cool. a happy accident for sure. the lines was in the perfect place too. I think it was meant to be. Not just try to do it again.

when I first saw this image, I initially thought you were in water and I was wondering how on earth you managed to hold the pose!! Striking image, and I love how things beyond our control can influence in such a positive and creative way! :-)

I give it a Thumbs Up!
In art classes we referred to them as “happy accidents”.
In the process of creating the unexpected occurs, is it a blessing or a curse?
The more creative eye discovers a new prize.
The brave ones reveal them.
The hungry ones devour them.

Hey Jo,
I love what you did with that image. The use of tint to bring attention to her face and draw it away from her body isn’t only abstract but a we bit genious. I’m going to add you to my watch list i like the creative energy I pick up from this digital media.
Peace love and Happiness,
Billy

I would never feature my own work on the home page. This one was created my another member – see here It was put up by another staff member over the weekend while I was offline. I just found out now.
