About Me:
When everyone started to go digital, I went in the opposite direction. Digital is cool and Photoshop is a great tool, but there are some looks you can only get with film. Thanks to eBay, I became a Polaroid fiend, with image and emulsion transfers, SX70, and PolaPan.
Polaroid broke my heart when they discontinued Polapan Can't blame them, but GOD what an amazing film. Instant B&W slides. Combine that with 669 for a transfer and you got something unique.
Tried to master the SX70 manipulations but never got it right. I found that I liked the images intact because the film captured this almost glowing quality of light.
Now they kill Time Zero. They say I can use 600 film but I don't know.
So maybe this means one less camera to carry. Maybe I just have rely on my Holga for the "quirky and arty less than in focus images"
