Sandwich Bag Filter

April @aecasey challenged me to make an image using a homemade filter. A plastic sandwich bag was employed here. Not thrilled with the results I got, but of the shots I took, I chose this one to post. I also applied a matte to the edge.

@aecasey April, here's the best of the lot. I need to set aside some time to experiment more seriously with this. Not too inventive this week.

hi Mary, how about letting the camera do the work this week, apparently your coolpix has 7 special effects such as Cross Screen effect , you could try the 50 steps walk too, stop and take a photo each 50 steps of something you see from wherever you end up.

just play around and select one or more shots to show me

I like the soft focus and odd blur it made. I have my fairy tale idea in mind, just haven't taken the photo yet. It will be late, but it will get done!

Lovely texture!

How fun to work with your own filter, we are spoiled with digital filters and maybe sometimes forget all the fun stuff we can do in camera.

@aecasey no worries. A rain check is perfectly OK.

An interesting effect I have never tried to use! The results are terrific

I think it makes an interesting effect. It's probably better than using vaseline on the lens.
