I've been longing to show off my most recent pictures !
So today when I woke up I had a little genius moment:
My mum is on holidays & she has a scanner in her home >:D ...
After work I snuck into her appartment and now tadaaah I've scanned some pics heheh ;)
Time for a little bit of Impossibility !
'The Impossible Project' is the company who have tried & still are trying to create a follower of the Polaroidfilm we all were used to for ages.
But careful ! Although the pictures look like Polaroid pictures, they process in a totally different way. They are very light sensitive (no more watching them develop!) and they take forever to develop fully (30 - 40 minutes).
The components are difficult to produce, therefore one film, which contains 8 pictures, costs 20€. Yes, a hell of expensive.
Still, polaroids have a special place in my heart, they remind me of my childhood. I've always wanted to have my own polaroid camera - and here I am :)
...
If you're interest in the project, I recommend watching this video:
What kind of equipment did I use ?
Camera: Polaroid's 600 (a newer edition it seems)
I was lucky and got this camera for 25€ from ebay ! It's in absolutely perfect condition, it hadn't really been used before I got it.
Film: The Impossible Project PX 680 Cool Color Shade
...
I'm looking forward to taking more picture with this camera ! I love the pictures, even if they're too dark/ light sometimes.
As you can see I like to give every picture a title :) That's because each and every one of them is special.
Fitting in a photo booth together with your friends is not always easy - here Hanne, Scholle & I struggled to fit in the picture ! (@ MQ, Lomography Shop)
Once the Party People managed to squeeze 6 people into one booth ! Was all cozy hahah ;)
As soon as I manage to buy a scanner I'll scan it & assemble with this post.
...
It's hard. I always took having a printer/scanner in my home for granted & now that it's gone I feel how much luxury that actually was :-(
I have one more scanned film stocked & then I'm running out of resources.
Finally I have managed to bring myself to scan some of the new pictures :)
My flatmate moved out and took the scanner with her, so I had to act quickly !!
So here I present my first fisheye film !
Using the fisheye for the first time, I'm mostly content with how the film turned out. Although it seems that one really has to be careful when it comes to using the flash indoors - that flash is tremendously strong !!! Maybe I should try to shoot before the flash is fully loaded to achieve a moderate lightning ?
As always - the pictures in pure sunshine turned out to be the best !
This film is all about my lazy cat Vivaldi, my friends, food ... & including some pictures from when my friend Hanne from Norway came to visit me in Vienna :)
The next fisheye film is almost finished (just about 6 pictures left), so I'm again in a state of curiosity...
What kind of equipment did I use ?
Camera: Lomography's Fisheye No. 1, Hello Kitty Special Edition.
Of course it wasn't possible for me to NOT buy this cutest of all cameras :D Hello Kitty addiction calling hur hur :B
Film: 35 mm, dm's Paradies Universalfilm, ISO 200.
...
For summer I'm planning on getting a redscale film, somehow I feel that this will fit the summer mood perfectly :D
Just have to decide if I should get the intense redscale in 120 mm that I could only use with my Diana F+ ...OR the Extended Range Redscale in 35 mm and use it with both fisheye & Diana F+ ,but having less of the redness due to the extended range ...
