Yesterday was the last day of 'Roid Week for Spring 2010, and I posted three photos! First, I posted these two (there is a limit of two per day/per person), both of Orson, my little dog, and both from my February session as a tester of the new Impossible Project film:
Orson Giving Me His Look
When Orson wants something, he sits up really straight, looks at you with this face, and high-fives you and makes weird little noises until you submit to his will!
Orson, February 2010
I love his cute profile and the grain in this photo. However, no one else seemed to like this photo in the 'Roid Week pool, and yesterday morning, I shot the below photo of Laika, so I took this second one of Orson out of the pool and added this one:

I used my Sx-70 and Fade to Black film for this one.
Overall, 'Roid Week was amazing, and I can't wait until the next one in the Fall!
'Roid Week keeps on truckin! Here are my two contributions to today's pool!
Channels
This is one of my shots from my experience as a tester of the new Impossible Project integral film (called Type 40 in the test), using my SX-70 camera. I love this flower and the way each petal has discreet channels for water and nectar to flow in and out.
Fade-to-Black Orchids

This one was taken using my Sx-70 and Fade to Black film, then scanned about 2 minutes into the development process.
Only one more day of 'Roid Week for Spring 2010! I need to figure out what my last two shots will be...
I love the beautiful wildflowers of spring, and on Friday, I got myself some poppy anemones from the Texas hill country to enjoy. I decided to take this photo of them, and I hope you like it.
Poppy Anemones (2010)
Camera: Polaroid SX-70
Film: Polaroid Fade to Black
This photo is in the process of fading to black, but I hope to solarize it and share it again later this year!
There's a print of this photo in my Etsy shop. Have a beautiful week ahead!
Have you heard about the beautiful limited edition Sx-70 Polaroid film called Fade to Black? It's available from Polapremium.com, and it's extremely unique. The images for this lovely film--made from very expired Time-Zero chemicals--fade to black after several hours! They are ephemeral, magical, and yet, you can save them, if you stop the developing process using a variety of easy--albeit messy!--techniques.
I've had a few packs of this film for a couple of months, but I just got around to shooting my first image with the film yesterday--and I am already in love! I took this photo of my whippet, Laika, and scanned it within a minute of shooting.
Laika, 16 January 2010
I cannot wait to shoot more of this beautiful, mysterious film! Stay tuned!
