Bioplastic Filters: An Analogue Photoshop - Daniël van Kesteren

Encouraging photo experimentation in a tactile manner

Summary:

For years now, professional and hobby photographers have relied on editing software like Adobe Photoshop to make their photos look as beautiful and unique as possible. Before this digital age of still imagery, however, people used analogue cameras that made use of actual filters to apply effects to a photograph. With my Bioplastic Filters, I want to bring us back to this earlier stage of photography. Making your own filters using cheap ingredients found in almost every household is a great and fun way to experiment with the infinite possibilities that the world of photography has to offer.
