New Toy

[Traffic circle]

I found a Polaroid camera sitting on a dumpster.

Each picture is a little disappointment. The color, the washed-out faces, the anti-climactic wait for it to develop: all of those. They’re still fun though. They’re fun little disappointments.

    I commandeered a Polaroid camera in Mike’s basement. There are now several photos of general debauchery with a yellowish tinge.

    I think that’s WHY I like polaroids and Lomos and whatnot. The color “features” can be splendid. I have this awesome self portrait that I took with a polaroid joycam some years back that turned out red because I blocked the flash. It was AWESOME.

    What kind of film does it take? Is it the old LandCamera style? If so, you can do emulsion transfers!
