W/NW Sprocket Holes

[dazedgonebye]

I've seen some great stuff that seems to work very well showing off the sprocket holes on 35mm film. I've only done a couple of rolls that way myself and can't say I'm using the idea to great effect yet.
Here are a couple of mine.

Anyone else?

Komaflex 4x4

Kodak Brownie Super 27

Reminds me of the popular "sloppy borders" thing that's so popular with wedding shooters. To me it just looks like a "HEY! Look at ME! I'm shooting film!" when the effect is most likely a digital creation made in "post processing". I've occasionaly had a bit of sprockets show along one edge due to sloppy loading of a bottom loader but there's no way it'll happen along both edges. Cameras aren't built that way. Too gimmicky for my tastes.

I like the look generally, but agree with you that you need some practice to 'get there'.

Don't stop.

Do it again.

ok, here's something of that but still different.
Exposed properly but then, accidentally flushed the camera with light (film rolled up on takeup spool).

Scanned on the epson v700 film directly on glass (some newton rings are visible).
