Polaroids

Early on in the term for the food project, not knowing what to do or where to go with it, I did take some photos made with a home made polaroid edge, giving an illusion of an actual photo but framing just a significant part of it. I did not follow up on this as I have always found that photographing through polaroid is more of a personal hobby.
Recently, I have found myself wanting to explore it more once again. When researching different polaroid sites, I found www.polanoid.net. A site where people load their images, taken with different cameras and film and explaining different effects that they got. A few images stood out for me, and made me want to make my 'home made' polaroid shots again.


The following images are ones I found on the website, that stood out to me more than others.

This image entitled, 'Sunshine City', taken by Lilou (http://polanoid.net/).

I liked this image more due to the content rather than it being taken on a polaroid. The city scape at the distance the image has been taken at has created marks that seem very monotone, giving a similar effect to the barcode collages I am currently working on.
