Polaroid SX-70 / (Expired) Polaroid Time-Zero film

Anniebee sent me a pack of Polaroid Time-Zero film that expired in July of 2003. It’s very bittersweet, and I’m pretty sure that this will be the last pack of time-zero that I’ll have the pleasure of shooting. The image is so velvety and I was immediately fell in love with instant photography all over again.

‘Roidweek 2010 Fall – Washington Square Park

Polaroid 680 SLR / Expired Polaroid 600 Black & White film

Two from a wee stash of photos taken during our recent trip to New York. A big chunk of Washington Square Park is currently fenced off for improvements. If anything, it only gives the squirrels a chance to flee from their canine foe.

If you’re into instant photography and feel like sharing, check out ‘Roid Week 2010. It’s only been a few hours and the contributions are fabulous. Even better, the good folk at the Impossible Project are giving away their beautiful film to two participants daily.

Black & White

Polaroid SLR 680 / Expired Polaroid 600 Black & White film

It’s bittersweet to fall in love with a film that is no more. Anniebee gifted me a couple of packs of this black and white film while we were in New York last week. What I really want to do is rip through the packs like it’s 1999. Common sense has prevailed and I’m taking the time to enjoy my temporarily monochrome world.
