Polaroids, Fujioids & Holgaroids

I’ve been shooting a lot lately with instant cameras. I have a bit of a collection of them and love using them (when I can afford the film!)

I shall be posting some of the shots over on my ‘Scrap book’ blog (or Tumblr to give it its official name) so check that out over the next couple of weeks.

To kick things off, here is a shot taken with a Holgaroid. That is a Holga with a Polaroid back.

It’s also got a close up lens on it which is causing the circular effect! I couldn’t figure out why it was doing this for a while, but because you have to put a correction lens on the Holga when using the Polaroid back, you have to put the close-up lens on that lens so it ends up sticking out and therefore becoming part of the photo.

The reason I’m going to be posting my recent ‘instant’ photos over on my ‘Scrap Book’ rather than here is because a lot of them were just experiments, playing around with close-up lens’, so some of them are not great photos, but still interesting, and so that’s the perfect place for them.

If you want to be informed when I post a photo the best thing to do is to follow me on twitter
