Walk With Me

West Virginia

Sunday stroll in Princeton, WV.

Mamiya RB67 with Polaback. Polaroid 80 Chocolate Film, expired 2009.

Weekends are my Polaroid shooting days because it's not as simple as just pressing the shutter. Well, sometimes it is with expired Polaroid film. But not with The Impossible Project film or peel apart like this film. I lost a couple shots from this pack because the film did not come through the rollers when I pulled the tab.

I love this chocolate film though. It doesn't work for everything. I imagine portraits would be strange looking although I've never tried or seen one so maybe they are okay. I know it doesn't do much for flowers. I did try that. So it's fun experimenting with different subjects. Like I said, a weekend project.

For the August challenge - Reflections. Other reflections can be seen here.
