Cross Processing Examples

Cross processing: the deliberate processing of photographic film in a chemical solution intended for a different type of film



I like this photo because the colour is cool looking and the scene is something I can try and recreate easily.


I chose this photo because I like the blue tone and it appears to sort of illuminate towards the centre of the image.


This photo is an interesting city shot and although the primary colour is green, there are other colours that really stand out in this image.

All of these photos are useful examples for me because they each show different options/ideas for colour and subjects. I would like to try different things in each one of my photos, including:
  • landscape (farm, beach, mountains)
  • city (buildings, bridges)
  • people and animals

Double Exposure Reflection


I chose this photo because I like the way that the two textures overlap each other. Also, I like it because it is like rural (the trees) crossing with urban (the brick wall). The way that the trees are drawn into her face works well and the exposure is just right

After examining my contact sheets I realized that there were many things I could have done better to have more successful photos. The main thing I should have done was check the aperture and make sure it was correct. Overall, I'm quite happy with the majority of my photos. Even though all the textures were in the wrong places and some were over/under exposed, it turned out well and produced some interesting images.

The whole double exposure project was frustrating to say the least, but now that I know this technique it may be of use to me one day. Although I had to re-due it many times, it only helped me to produce better photos in the end.

Double Exposure Examples



I like this photo because it utilizes what I was planning as a possibility for my photo (front view portrait, trees as the texture). It's interesting how the trees add a unique texture to his face.



This photo is interesting because of the way both exposures interact with each other. Although not specific, it has plenty of interesting textures that I could try for my own photo (buildings, trees, flowers, etc.). Also, it reminds me of all the different possibilities I could try during this project.
