Oddly enough, I took a self-portrait last night...





strobist: 1 Vivitar 285, camera left, 1/4, shot into a silver reflective umbrella. Flash triggered via Cybersyncs.

Nice border!


Curious as to where you got it. A sequence of slightly different images in the same movie film border might be fun

Hi Rodger,


dont mean to speak for Sean, but i found free actions for PS cs4 where u can select multiple pictures and create the film reel effect above.





Cheers!

Where can I get these actions from?

I don't know where devsalvi got the actions he was talking about, but GIMP is a free alternative to Photoshop. You can find out more about it at GIMP's homepage. It's got a few nice standard filters and it also provides a few different options for converting images to black &amp; white.

Actually Roger, it's a totally customizable filter that comes standard in GIMP. I just found it the other day when I wanted to edit a picture on my girlfriend's laptop (she doesn't have Photoshop). I'm not a huge fan of GIMP--but only because I'm so used to Photoshop. However, it can work wonders in a pinch.
