A very atmospheric shot but the presentation with the brick wall background is very distracting - just my $0.02.

Thanks. Yes I'll take a proper picture later but only have my iPhone at the moment so I had to do it outside.
Cheers!

That's a BEAUTIFUL image! What film are you using? Fuji?

I think, the intro above the photo said something about polaroid ...

I like the brick (walkway) and would call the iphone photo "Wet Grass on Bricks."

Thanks for the comments. Yes it's a Polaroid 195 with a close up kit. The Dof with that on at f3.8 is SO small. It makes it tricky to use (especially given parallax) but with the right patch of grass I was confident some of it would run through the focus point.
Film is Fuji FP100c so it has a matte finish which you can just about make out.
Lovely colours - I wish they'd make a 400 speed colour film. Oh and a matte version of the superb FP3000b.
Cheers!

Great pictures, personally I like the contrast in the first picture between artificial background (bricks) and the softness of the natural subject in the polaroid (I know it's a fuji
) . And the colors are great in all your pictures!

Thanks Robert. It went on Flickr Explore yesterday and now has over 7000 views! I don't really know why, or how.

Dear Ped,
I really like your wet grass photo !
I completely agree with icebear about the atmospheric feeling of this shot.
It can be very interesting to see your print in real.
The wall for me is not so disturbing. It's like a welcoming to come to see it for real. (my 2 cents tambien)

Thank you Rom. I think you put it well - the picture shows a picture of a print, which gives it something more tactile somehow that a simple scan of the print itself.

I love it! I've been using my Land 360 and flash as event cam (birthdays, special events etc) but always wondered how small DOF would look on polaroid. Great job.

Thanks for the info. "Matte finish"? I'll have to look around for that... sounds interesting.
