Photography is a fantastic gateway to creativity.

 

Have you tried multiple exposure, emulsion lift and collage? There are more ways to explore actually. How about a transparent Polaroid?

 

Scroll down to learn this simple easy trick and get creative! 

 

 

 

 P.S. Only applicable with B&W and Duochrome Polaroid films 

 

Step 1: Take a nice picture.

 

Step 2: Wait around 10 mins until it’s fully developed.

 

 

Step 3: Cut the side and bottom to expose chemical packs.

 

 

 

Step 4: Flip chemical packs over.

 

Step 5: Slightly cut off the little black thing. (do not cut through the frame) 

 

 

Step 6: Flip film over. (image facing upwards)

 

Step 7: Gently and slowly roll the image to separate it from the black plastic back.

 

 

Step 8: Cut the top connection to separate them.

 

 

Step 9: Now you have a transparent Polaroid!

 

 

 1. It takes 10 to 15 mins development time for B&W films.

 

2. Use freshly developed films. (Within a day)

 

3. The result would be the best with sharp and high contrast photos!
