Bob Proctor on The Secret

The Secret

I recently was feeling a little down about things and was talking to my friend Mark. He said he had a book I might like to read, that book was called The Secret. I've just read through it and although I'm normally a bit cynical about books like this, I do think that positive thoughts attracts positive things into your life. I am going to be more positive about things and focus my thoughts on what I want rather than what I don't want.

Impossible Project to relaunch Polaroid-compatible film


I have a polaroid camera :) 
After checking out the prices of Polaroid 600 film on Amazon, I was a little bit disheartened as it has been discontinued and it's about £80 for a 10 shot film!! It's now considered rare and the prices reflect this. I did a bit of research and found that The Impossible Project have bought one of the old Polaroid factories and equipment and are now starting to make film that is compatible with Polaroid 600 cameras at a much cheaper price. It's still quite expensive but it's dramatically cheaper.

Do not adjust your mind, there is a fault in reality.

Lo fi photography

Being a lover of all things lo-fi, I like how an old camera can give a different feel to the photos. I don't have an old camera (just a crap newish digital camera) yet - but Tahra has offered me an old polaroid camera to have a mess around with. I had a go an making photos look older than they are, and these are the results. I think I need a bit of practice to be honest. I reduced the saturation of the image and heightened the red levels. I added "noise" at around 20% but only after flattening the image as it wouldn't let me until then. Not brilliant but it's a start.

Best Coast - So Gone

An equally brilliant song. I wish I was sat on a beach right now....

Best Coast | When I'm With You

My current favourite band. I'm addicted to this song, it's on repeat most of the time. I actually picked up my guitar for the first time in ages and worked out the tabs. Pretty simple chords but such a great record. Debut album is out this summer and I can't wait. This is the soundtrack to my summer :)

If only......

I'm very curious about this work as it is related to my craft work. The website is not up and running yet, but I will keep checking for updates.

I really liked some of the mixed media work at 42 New Briggate, especially this work by Georgina Isaac. I like how print the image on fabric, gives it a friendliness.
