Whatever you've heard about about The Impossible Project's PX 600 UV+ Black Border films, it's probably true. It's incredibly sharp, has nice, smooth silvery tones, and even warms to a pleasing sepia color. Frankly, this is my favorite Impossible Film to date, (PX 680 beta coming in a close second).

Don't know if it shows, but I am filthy dirty after mowing for five hours.. The ground is so dry that the dust kicked up by the mower is thick and choking, and it takes a couple of days to get it all out of my eyes. But hopefully all that hard will pay off someday. That's the American dream - the opportunity to work hard, and do more - make more... No guarantees - only the opportunity - the freedom to make our own future, and to pass that on to our children.
There never was, and never will be, equality of outcome, because not everyone is willing to put in the same amount of effort, time, self-denial and delayed gratification.. So - we make our choices and live with them - don't we...
So, a few weeks ago I picked up what appeared to be a never used polaroid land camera still in it's box. I got a few tips from Tim Ho on how to get it in working shape. A couple of things from ebay and a little work and we have success!
main..compared to the “instant gratification” of digital, i kind of like the “waiting period” that goes along with shooting this medium, but it can get pricey.. it got me thinking about me wasting film on my gramps camera and not hearing any complaints from him after getting them from the lab..
Instant photography
instant gratification
instant chemistry
instant magic
instant love

Interestingly enough, this guy blended in without missing a beat. He seemed casual, and not completely contrived, which I liked. Everything just works here.
From another participating artist's site, I found out this is artist Andrew Jones, who had a self portrait piece in the show. Life imitates art and vicey versa.
Water has no taste, no color, no odor; it cannot be defined, art relished while ever mysterious. Not necessary to life, but rather life itself. It fills us with a gratification that exceeds the delight of the senses
I have started shooting film again and its great fun - and most film cameras can be picked up at a good price if you are prepared to hunt around which is part of the fun. Oh the joy of loading it with film, thinking about what you're going to shoot, the light, shutter speeds, framing the shot carefully and only then pressing the shutter - carefully as it cost money to develop. Then sending it for development and waiting.......
A different experience to the instant gratification of digital in my opinion.

In today’s world, the majority of people have a smart phone whether it be an Android, iPhone or Blackberry. We can book flights, tour hotels worldwide, and plan family road trips with the simple tap of a few buttons. We are an “I want it now!” society, and with technology today, we can have it right now.
This is why the Quick Response code, or the “QR code” is very appealing to consumers.

At Kparatao, near Sokode, we attended the fire dance. Tradition tells how the Kotokoli tribe was always feuding with the Tamerma tribe and often women and children were in the huts by the fire when fighting broke out. Not being able to escape quickly, they regularly ended up getting burned. The tribe therefore made a pact with the god of fire – thus the fire dance was born to show their respect and gratification to the god. Not all members of the tribe are able to participate in the dance, which induces a form of trance, only a selected few.
Derrick Burbul
In an era of instant digital-photo gratification, Derrick Burbul is taking it slow. In addition to his digital work, Burbul enjoys pursuing alternative photographic processes such as ambrotypes and tintypes. What we might consider a long development time—several minutes to prepare and expose just one tintype—was actually quite rapid for photographers of the late 1800s. Tintypes technically produce a negative image, but on the blackened iron background of the plate, the image appears as a positive. It takes Burbul about ten minutes to prepare a plate, and he can only carry and expose about twelve plates when he goes out to shoot. Perhaps the nature of his medium has allowed Burbul to take the time not only to carefully compose his shots but to consider each one thoroughly and thoughtfully.
Burbul’s fascination with historical processes complements his interest in exploring the history of the west and westward movement. Oxen and Wagon along the Lincoln Highway shows two concrete oxen standing outside an abandoned souvenir shop along the historic Lincoln Highway, the first cross-continental highway in North America.
The image hearkens back to the time when pioneers traveled the Oregon, California, and Mormon Trails. Burbul has studied journals and accounts from explorers and pioneers to gain a sense of what the land meant to generations of the past and how it continues to impact us today. Burbul hopes his work will make audiences consider the nature of our continuing relationship with history and with our environment.
Oxen and Wagon captures a great deal of history in a small frame. The once busy Lincoln Highway is now largely abandoned in favor of the I-80. The equally abandoned souvenir shop suggests that when our interaction with history is merely transient or superficial, it is easily forgotten. At the same time, plans to renovate the old souvenir shop hold promise for the future—out of the old emerges something new. Oxen and Wagon chronicles much more than a tale of general expansion or decline. It speaks to the history of photography; to the stories of the people who traveled these roads and the ways they chose to document their journey; to the journey of the artist as he discovers more about his art form, his vision, and his place; and to us, the viewers, as we take these journeys with him.
Burbul received his MFA in Studio Arts from the University of Idaho. He currently resides in Kearney, Nebraska.
Since I took this photo this afternoon, this sweater has been steam blocked, steeked, had button bands added and all ends have been woven in.
All I need now are buttons and grosgrain to finish it off.

the wrinkle of saccharine sheets:
a frisson of gratification.
enervated eyes;
drained mouths;
abandoned hands;
hollow clothes;
the tranquility of ironed sheets:
a shiver of frustration.

My paternal grandfather would have turned eighty today. He was a photographer by both passion and profession. One of his first jobs, in his teens, was operating the cameras at the local movie theater. He attended the Ray School of Photography and, during the time my father was growing up, operated a portrait studio. Part of his portrait work included school photography, and if you're reading this and have prints/slides marked "Collingwood Studios" or "M.E. Collingwood," you have a piece of my grandfather's work.
Having a photographer in the family led to a number of jokes about hands and flowers, and hundreds of pictures lying around. There also always seemed to be at least half-a-dozen cameras. And anyone who's ever heard my rants about camera equipment arrogance has heard me display an attitude I picked up from him.
This Polaroid SX-70 belonged to my grandfather. According to information I've found online, models with this serial number were manufactured in early 1979. I remember this camera occasionally coming out while I was growing up; it was my first exposure to "instant gratification" photography. Last Thanksgiving, while unpacking from a trip to see my father's side of the family, I discovered that my grandmother had slipped this camera into my suitcase. The print of the light is one that I took with the camera just this morning.
I'm (obviously) more into digital now but growing up with a film photographer in the family has left me with a healthy respect for it. I'll likely never completely depart from film. Grandpa, no doubt, would welcome digital, but there's still something to be said for earlier forms of photographic gratification...both instant and delayed.
whilst the shoppers in front of homey had a basket full of instant gratification (e.g., containing high fructose corn syrup) ... he was quietly buying his bottle of cheap booze.

I went to Matthew O'Brien's book signing to have his most recent book, My Week At The Blue Angel: And Other Stories from the Storm Drains, Strip Clubs, and Trailer Parks of Las Vegas signed. It was an excellent series of stories that shed a light on the unseen sides of Las Vegas. I highly recommend it! Check out his website.

Padparadscha is my favorite color in Swarovski, but I've never been able to find a complementary color. Until now. I got these 'Cranberry Lined Peridot' Miyuki triangles, and they match perfectly. I got this pattern, titled Instant Gratification, from the Bead and button special issue Beading Stitches Basics. The pattern is designed by Dottie Hoeschen.
