ohsweetmotherofjesus don't dissillusion me, well at least promise you didn't do it in Pohotoshop. There is so much fakery in polanoid these days but kitchen table photosurgery I reckon is just about acceptable. Please vote for it yourself, my vote button is definitely gone, I'll try not to be paranoid about it. Gosh you're good at scratching.

"Just about acceptable"? What is this? The Irish Inquisition?

Dis be classical manual post-exposure Polaroid manipulation, Jan me lad. It don't get much more 'roidy dan dis! (That was my 'roid voice. Did you like it?)

Seeing as this creative option is unique to the Polaroid medium, I reckon it would be rather daft if the merest whiff of disapproval were to be attached to the technique.

However, dangerous flashing eyes and indignant tirades aside, I shall nonetheless accept your kind vote and I have taken the liberty of voting on your behalf.

Now go and put some pictures up again, young man. Then you can play with the grown ups.

Awesome. I don't mean that like a quaint American would say it, I am in awe that you created that "in camera", it's gobsmacking. Pictures like this are the reward for trudging through polanoid every day.


( and I would vote but the vote button is gone, and yes I am logged in)

Thank you very much, Jan.

Of course, a lot impinges upon your definition of "in camera". As long as you mean it the sense of "sequestered in secret chambers" then you are correct. Much of this happened in the kitchen. There was a scalpel, a running tap, some kitchen roll and some glue; hot water and towels; a mad professor with a smoking test tube; a crate of fresh baby sharks. The usual set-up.

Shall I vote for you? (Always wanted to vote for my own pictures.)

This just made me say "YEA-UH" really awkwardly in the middle of class. But I love it. It deserves another uncomfortable outburst.

Gosh, you can secretly surf the Internet in class? I'm impressed.

You're so right, Esther: it's an exponential growth.

Magic.
Magic Esther.

Thank you.

There is magic in the world. I can't even explain it, but it's got something to do with the way that, on special, rare occasions, two quite ordinary things can merge and become infinitely more than the sum of their own parts.
