create something beautiful

With the death of Polaroids on the horizon, more and more people seem to be becoming nostalgic for the ancient discolored little instamatic images. And I’m completely ok with that. I’ll be the first to admit I wish I’d hopped on the trend before it became campy cool to carry around an SX-70 to parties. Now I just feel like a bit of a tool doing so and instead bring mine around to places like the beach or random camping trips (images to follow someday from my current forays into the use of various slightly vintage film cameras of varying formats).

Today I stumbled across another Polaroid-focused blog that I’m now in love with and just have to share. It’s called Tokyo Polaroids and I have no idea what the rhyme or reason behind the site is since it’s all in Japanese. The only explanation I can find is the tagline up top “Five polaroids are better than four.” But I do know there are some pretty great shots on here, a lot of them involving cats oddly enough. And I can’t wait to check back on the site periodically to see what new images they update it with.

Then of course there’s My Polaroid Blog, which I already fell in love with several months ago because of her oh so pretty, dreamy images she manages to capture.

*Sigh*
So many pictures of Paris. It makes me want to go back desperately.
