Who is that? She's very pretty.

My friend Sidni. She is pretty, the picture isn't meant to be. Needless to say, she doesn't like it, haha.

The things that are most beautiful usually have the most faults.
Look at me bein' all philosophical, pssssh.

My first polaroïd :

Gah, your scanner did a much better job than mine. My polaroids look all overexposed and crooked.
What kind of Polaroid is it?

I use an old Pola from early 80's, it's a Pronto 600.
I've bought it yesterday for 4.90 €.

Something like this?

I have one as well, but I lost it, so I use a Sun600. I got them both at Goodwill for around 3 bucks each. Which is so rad.

Hah I just remembered I have pictures of it..



I fucked up with the lighting on this one.

Polaroid cameras are great. The film itself is stupidly expensive though, which takes alittle from the joy. Boy are things changing these days, everyones rehashing old concepts - this is apparent with people photoshopping images into polaroid vectors, like they actually used a polaroid camera. Why?
The plus to polaroids becoming even more increasingly popular would be for the film to be more readily available and preferrably a hell of a lot cheaper. Although this would take away from the beauty of the images - they'd become fairly standardised which would detract from the beauty of the polaroid camera. Like when Digital cameras came out and everyone was like "Wow, look at the clarity! I want one", Polaroids would become the norm and not as appealing.
So I gues I'd prefer to put up with the price.

By the way, this is nice. As are Annngellas: Is that you in the image? Doesn't look like you from the pic thread. Did either of you Photoshop them?

No, like this :

Mine's not nearly as bad ass.

I definitely agree. I actually know someone who took a picture that I took of them (with my digital SLR) and rendered it into a Polaroid. I didn't want to say anything because it's sort of a silly thing to argue over, but it bugs me nonetheless.

No, it's my sister, she's only 10. If you mean my Polaroids, no I didn't Photoshop them. If you mean the ones I just posted of my sister, then yes I did -but only for brightness/contrast/making it black & white.

Ripchord -yr camera is still awesome from what I can see. My monitor is dark and it's hard to make out any detail.

My baby:


My other baby that I haven't used yet:

I've bought this one in a second hand dealer :

Nice shots everyone. I got 20 pictures coming up.

Okay, this is summer '07:
