All of these shots were taken standing on a high speed road on a bridge. As a result they tend to lack accuracy because i was scared of getting run over.

This camera used to belong to my fathers and I thought it was the coolest camera in the world when I was a kid. It is still beautiful. My very first Polaroid Camera which now has been given away.
Don't need it since I now have purchased myself a SX-70 camera.
Shot with Fujifilm X-pro1 using a Fujinon XF35mm F1.4. Developed from RAW using VSCOfilm03 F-Fuji FP-100c cool++

I had a lunchbox just like this when I was a kid. I loved it so much I tracked one down on ebay. It arrived today and of course I had to polaroid it immediately.
why "onward"? I was laid off suddenly yesterday and I'm trying to stay positive and upbeat, onward to better things and all that stuff.
Polaroid SX-70 Model 2, Impossible Project PX680 first flush film.
Las Vegas, NV
Mom: This was probably the family adoption picture we sent them as part of the application to St. Peter.
Me: Well, I don't think they would've returned the photo to you. I think instead you took a bunch of pictures this day, and you chose the best one.
Mom: Well, OK, that makes sense.
Me: Your hair is longer.
Mom: Yeah, I was probably letting it grow.
Me: That's rather a fancy get-up you're in, too.
Mom: Yeah, it was a very simple brocade dress—one of my favorites—and it had a coat to match.
Me: And you're wearing orchids.
Mom: Yes, Daddy bought those for me on Mother's Day.
Me: And Tommy and Bobby are in their matching Eton suits.
Mom: Yes [giggles].
This is the "Polaroid Swinger Sentinel". It is from the popular and inexpensive line of "Swinger" Land Cameras produced by Polaroid from 1965 to 1970. Other models in the Swinger series included the original Model 20 and the Model 3000 "Big Swinger".
With an initial price of $19.95 USD it was the first true affordable instant camera. The camera's low price and ease-of-use made it popular with the young adult demographic of the 1960s and 70s, resulting in millions of units being sold.
The Sentinel is nearly identical to the original Swinger with the exception of a grey body instead of white, and the lack of a built-in flash. The camera also features a ridged all-plastic body, a plastic fixed focus single element lens, a single speed rotary shutter, and assisted exposure adjustment via a built-in photomemeter. The camera would have originally used Polaroid’s 20-Seires rollfilm, which was Polaroid's first instant film to develop outside the camera.
I don't think this particular camera was ever used, because the piece of paper warning the user to read the instructions carefully before using was still inside.

Funny isn't it - how having a new camera can make someone else's washing hanging on the line in the sunshine, take on a whole new identity as Polaroid fodder. I just hope the owners of this freshly drying laundry weren't actually watching me faff about trying to do this.
I suspect they consider me strange enough as it is...
For some reason...
;)
Tokyo's rivers run almost entirely under some construction or another at sometime in their flow. It has become cult to photograph them!

The Recipe
5 mins pre soak
8 mins Ilford Microphen
5 mins Ilford Fixer
10 mins wash
wash aid
For those that want to know Microphen does what it says on the tin!
Tip 2 - Always keep all your chemicals at the same temperature as each other, all the way to the water flush at the end. This avoids any damage to the film grains as you go through development. Hence an improved sharpness is achieved. This shot is hand held after all.

That's the edge of the North Atlantic Ocean you can see there....
I run past these pyracantha bushes every day, and admire their fiery berries. Today I drove over there with my Polaroid to capture them on film.

If you love integral film and want to see it come back - then you really need to see this - The Impossible Project. Roll on 2010! :D

This is the "Polaroid Electric Zip" camera. It is a ridgied bodied, 80-series instant Land Camera produced by Polaroid from 1975 to 1978, and would have originally retailed for about $21.00 USD.
Like most inexpensive Polaroid cameas of the 1970s, the Electric Zip features a ridged (non-folding) plastic body, a darken/lighten exposure control, a 75/3000 ISO selector, and a flashcuble socket on the left side of the lensboard. The camera would have also used 80-series packfilm, which was simular to 100-series packfilm but produced a square picture rather than a rectangular one. The Electic Zip was also avaliable in blue, black and white (shown above).
A good stock of the discontinued Fuji FP-3000b and some 100c. Along with my Polaroid 250 Land Camera with a flash bracket and Vivatar flash. People LOVE when you take this thing out and give them pictures to take home with them. I really do need to get a dedicated Film Fridge. I converted the Polaroid 250 to use 3 AAA batteries.

So I'll go but we know I'll see you down the line.
And we'll hate what we've lost, but we'll love what we find.
And I'm feeling fine; we've made it to the coastline.
The above is a Polaroid 95B LandCamera circa 1957-1961, and the below is a Polaroid Sun660 circa 1978-1986.
+ in comments. I hate how you can see my scars in this one. I tried cropping out my legs but it threw the composition out of balance.
