I like the saturated look. It compliments the rusted subject. It’s funny how us Westerners start ‘reading’ a picture on the top left and you’ve got this really nice bokeh there which isn’t the subject and would normally be overlooked by your casual viewer but in this case we’re subconsciously forced to start there so we don’t miss a thing. Wow, that’s a long sentence.
i love old factories. i’m picturing this place to be out in the middle of nowhere and blissfully quiet.
you may not know, but polaroid is ceasing production on all of their film. by the end of next year, it’ll be all gone.
they are looking for someone to purchase the rights to make the film, however, which i think has a strong chance of happening since there are about 30 million of us out there that use the film.
so there’s a petition now that will hopefully do one of two things:
make polaroid corporate reverse their decision (probably not) or make a smaller specialty company realize there is a market for polaroid film (possible).
but we need signatures. lots of signatures.
help keep this art form alive and prosperous for years to come!
thanks.
