‘Roid Week 2008 is here!

Posted 21 April, 2008 in Random

Shoot some Polaroids, head on over to the ‘Roid Week 2008 group on Flickr (a free account will do), and jump on in!

This time I’ll be shooting expired 669 and Fuji FP-100C and FP-100B peel-apart/pack films and 600 & 779 with a Super Shooter, an Automatic 100, an SLR 680, a Spectra, and a Hasselblad with an NPC Polaroid back. (Yeah, I should narrow it down, but it’s a fun excuse to shoot everything!)

Here’s my Roid Week picture for today, the de Young museum on Fuji FP-100B film shot in an Automatic 100 (see this previous post about my experience with this camera):

 

 

Grab a camera and get shooting!

Reminder: Polaroid Week 2008 starts this Monday!

About ‘Roid Week 2008

It’s that time again…..POLAROID WEEK! This one is a little bittersweet — as you all know, Polaroid has . It very well could be the last Polaroid Week we have…

But until that happens, it’s time to play! Post a Polaroid a day.

APRIL 21 - APRIL 25, 2008

Five days. Five polaroids. (or more if you’re so inspired, just not more than 3 a day)

Starting on Monday, April 21 2008. Stock up on film (!), dust off your SX70, Spectra, 600 or Polaroid weapon of choice this week and start shooting!

Or dig out old squares you’ve found, stolen, or have had laying around since high school and scan scan scan.

Here are our requests: please post photos you haven’t posted on Flickr before. Meaning, give us something new — don’t contribute a Polaroid to this group that you already posted last September. That’s just plain lazy. Also, please don’t post more than three photos to the pool a day.

C’mon. Play with us. You know you want to.

Love,

Cate n’ Lori
