This whole series - not just the ones above - are so good. And it really shows you how the image is so much more important than sharpness, 'perfect' colour/contrast, DR etc
Thanks! I like 'em although it's all a bit schizophrenic as I'm waiting for my first medium-format photos to come back from the lab and those will be kind of the polar opposite of these. I like it all...low-res, high-res, whatever.
What I like about the Polaroid Instant Lab printer is that I can get everything right before firing off a Polaroid, unlike with a real Polaroid camera. On the one hand that eliminates one of the most enjoyable aspects of Polaroid (its unpredictability) but it saves a lot of money as Polaroid film runs about $2 (Canadian) per photo. I did have a few failures, mainly underexposures, but not as many as if I'd been shooting direct to Polaroid. And there's still an element of surprise because all of these Polaroids look quite different from the original photos.
