Shoot 1-Film Destruction Lemon

In this shoot I used a colour 35mm film in the Nikon EM. Its a camera that shoots in Aperture Priority mode. Before I shot I soaked the canister in a lemon juice and vinegar solution for an hour. This made the films colour layers decay. It produced a very red tint to the pictures, where a lot of the sky came out very off colour. In a few you got a green smudge or dot. This was not as extreme as I had thought it would have been or how the pictures that Mathew Cetta or the lomography community had achieved. I would love to try it again and use different chemicals and look into using different methods such as boiling it.
I shot a verity of landscapes, close ups and portraits, to experiment with the different subjects and what effect the lemon would have on the picture. I found that the pictures were effected at random,and didn't have a reason for creating the green smudges or red tint. Some frames on the film also has smudges and tints on where there was no exposure taken, this was due to the film sticking when it was being used. Again I found myself not taking pictures with a theme, as I don't always use up film in one place and will go on until I finish a roll so I don't waste film.
The picture that demonstrates the effects the most is the one of the blue bins, It has a very big green smudge and the red tint is very evident around it. You can also get scratches and black lines on the image with is where it was scratched while I dried the film after the lemon soak.
Next shoot I am looking into double exposures, but will come back to this at a later date as the prep for the shoot took up to 2 weeks, with drying the film. I would like to look into boiling the film or using cola, which also gives some strange effects. I think that I did not get as dramatic effect as I was hoping for was due to the type of lemon juice I used. As I used some from a bottle rather than an actual lemon.
