Save Polaroid

PauloGabriel's blog

I cannot believe that there might be some people who actually don't like Polaroid pictures. What I do believe and understand, is the cause why so many people are still in love with it. Polaroid has its own mood. It is alive.

I don't have one, but I'm developing these wishes for one over the years. Today is kinda hard to find polaroid films for sale in other place than the internet... and people who have the camera, are actually making film stash. No wonder... it cannot die. It won't die. There are tons of Polaroid pics in Flickr, and there are even sites dedicated to it, like Polanoid. So, I hope you enjoy this selection! Cheers. ;)

... most of the girls on there are pretty cute... you know im not a big fan of Polaroid, but i can see why some people like em... i don't think Polaroids work well with scenery or inanimate objects, but they do work with people and faces, they give ia a nostalgic, blueish, teen, old school feel to it... niice work guys

I love the one of the three flowers. Nice mood set right there. I've always wanted to work with Polaroids, but I can never find the equipment here. Oh well.

The thing with Polaroids is...e-v-e-r-y Polaroid-picture is a beautiful / interesting picture. It's magic. Because if the image on the Polaroid was taken by an other camera...it would not be that special.

Fuji bought Polaroid and they're trying to sell the rest of Polaroid's stalk before making new film, that's why it's so expensive & you can't find it anywhere.
Thanks for using one of my polaroids (:

Polaroids are great, I have a mate that is really into them. They have a warmth that can't be manufactured.

LAST HOURS! Please check out my design and vote for me at http://www.dontpaniconline.com/designbrief/entry/?id=4481 before September 28. Greatly appreciated :) Thanks to everyone that has supported me!
