About
San Francisco, California. Shot at 6 AM using Polaroid 450 Land Camera and Polaroid 667 B&W Instant Pack Film ISO 3000. The grain, scratches, white specs, and dirty image quality is completely natural and done purposely. The camera is over 50 years old and the film stock is pull apart so it's messy and unique.
Hi Rebecca... I laughed when I purchased my land camera on e-bay. I said, what am I doing??? - but well, I'll give it a try. After going out for the first time, taking a shot without any adjustment but "ligher or darker" on the camera, pulling the film out of its holder, letting it settle for 45 seconds, then peeling the film apart... and to my amazement - there was an instant beauty before me. I love the medium so much. Hope you get the bug too!!!
