Image result for strips negative film shown to lightI see Film as old vintage usage in the medium of photography, but I would want to try out its different processes and techniques that various practitioners in the past have  invented or have come across in their scientific studies. I know that the techniques and processes that were invented are time-consuming but I would have patience in learning a new form of photography, whilst attempting a trial and error basis, learning from my mistakes, I would try again, in a different approach.




I like the way that a roll of film is inserted inside the camera so it will work its magic for when a photograph is taken, it will be stored onto the film. This method is like pasting a cutout into a piece of paper, in a traditional way and by hand. Like a photomontage or montage. As the photograph is on the film and is still negative, the negative effect which is all in black, though when it is shown up to the light subjects of the photograph that was taken show as dark figures or objects. I used to admire taking strips of film and exploring them by showing them through light and seeing a composition of different objects or figures that were dark and had no colour to them.
