Its Been a While Lets Get Up to Date.

Its been about 3 years since my last post on this blog, my interest in film has come and gone as life has picked up. But once an instant photographer alwasy and instant photographer.

Since my last post in November of 2012 my instant film camera collection has grown as has my knowledge. I hope to get back on track since I was last writing my various blog posts.

Whats new??????
The Impossible Project and the Time Zero Movie!

Since their launch in 2010 the Impossible Project has since stunned the world with the revival of analog instant film, showing that the world still has enough dedicated Instant Film Photographers. There was even an AWESOME MOVIE made about Polaroid and the revival of Instant Film after Polaroid ended production. This movie came out in June of 2012 and I personally believe it is one of the greatest movies I've ever seen.
Time Zero: The Last Year of Polaroid Film       Impossible ProjectImpossible
Even Though the Impossible Project purchased all the machinary from Polaroid in order to produce their own instant film the formula is actually quite different. When I last wrote this blog in 2012 the Impossible Project's film was still extremely experimental and the first pack I ever shot never lived up to my expectation, in fact my photo came out so badly I almost didn't want to shoot the rest of the pack. But since that some what hopeless Christmas morning 3 years ago the Impossible Project has improved their film Tremendously. So the following photo's I have below were shot with two completely different camera's and are from two completely different type's of film that the Impossible Project has produced. The first photo below is of a Koenigsegg Super Car shot with my iPhone and printed using my Impossible Project Instant lab with the new as of 4-26-15 beta film. The newest beta film as incredible color and produces an image with quality of the original polaroids. This new beta film begins to show an image in a matter of minutes. The second photo is of a little cottage in Truro Massachusetts shot using an SX-70 model 3, this camera was of course using the newest film of that summer which was the PX-70 Cool Film which was at that time incredibley hard to use. The newer film made by the Impossible Project is spectacular artistic material that matches that of polaroid's TZ Artistic. The Impossible Project has truly out done themselves.
