What is it?

What is it?

It´s a traffic mirror, partly overgrown by ivy.

@petronius such wonderful pictures. I don't know which ones I love the most. The abstract figure studies are extremely good and the multi exposure stuff is top notch. Overall great compositions for the medium. Inspiring! I do feel a bit of a regret that I picked the rf70 and instax over the sx70 and polaroid.

Thank you for your kind words! Don´t regret your choices, after all I shot these photos 30+years ago. Today I feel no more urge to do so, but I love a sentimental journey through my archive

Thanks for sharing. A funny thing: Not one hour from when I saw your polaroids here, the very same photos showed up on my tumblr feed. Someone shared them from your flickr 🙂

Such great images from everyone.
Took out my camera for a spell yesterday. Did not get anything particularly good. But I sort of like this composition with the tree.

Happy that this thread is back to life @Rikard thanks for reviving it.

Hoping to see some of @lynnb pics here. I know it is coming up to summer in his part of the world.

Got myself a Polaroid SX-70. I must say that this camera is such a joy to use.

Long time I do not shoot Polaroids but I decided to make some pictures specifically for the next RoidWeek. Now I'm preparing myself and...looking for inspiration...

Thank you so much. Right now I feel like all I want to shoot are polaroids 🙂

I'm new to polaroids and never heard about RoidWeek. I see it's a Flickr thing. Maybe I should revive my old account 🙂 I just discovered the Polaroids by Andrei Tarkovsky. I love them. Maybe you can find some inspiration from him.
Here is one:


There is also a book - Instant Light - which I will try to track down 🙂

I have the Tarkovskij book "Instant Light" which is a pleasure for Polaroid's lovers!
