Holgaroid fun with the peerless Type 85 film

I really fell in love with Polaroid's Type 85 film. Of course, they cancelled production after I shot my first pack. I scored three additional packs after that, and I still have one left, sitting, longingly, in the fridge. I hope to be brave enough to shoot it soon. Last July, I went out into the countryside near my home here in North Texas and shot two of my favorite Type 85 photos. These are scans from the positives. I adore the way that the expired emulsion created a bit more mystery in these photographs, as well as the framing created by the Holga's stark vignetting.
