I dig it. With the noise. But then again I am a kinda noisey person.
Great capture to begin with.
Sending you a note.

thanks buddy
i was not so sure about the noise at first - it's normally a priority for me to reduce it as much as possible.
but it has a different feel to it. and i like that.
thanks for your great comments. will get back to you on that note

No worries. I think that the noise, in this instant, aids in the polariod feel. Being a fairly low-tech kind of camera.
Liking the new experimentation. Look forward to seeing more.

trying to find images that suit them is my new aim. we could do this style for your photo?

I think that would be a grand idea. I also suggest looking into a technique known as bleach bypass.. I'm sure there are some explanations on the net, but basically it gives the photo a slightly yellowed look that kinda says "i was taken in the 80s!" could work for this sort of thing too.

I miss Polaroids. Too bad the film is pretty expensive now.

Great Great Great - the reason why you have a signature style is because you take "the" shot and find something spontaneous and amazing in the most simple things. You title it so well and make the viewer see and feel something very unique. With this one its the innocence of kids, the light on their peaceful faces, the wonder in the expressions.........the title is perfect.
I like your nature shots, they are lovely photos, but this sort of stuff to me is a 'capture'. It moves people and its straight from the very creative and beautiful soul you have. Love it.

This is amazing! Polaroid on the go~
By the way, read the "Read Me" yet? Seems like we gotta do one extra step before it finishes - Finisher. Gotta press play for that and it's gonna add some bevels and texture on the photo.

I would love to help! But you'll have to filter them too. Coz I know you don't wanna post too many photos of your kids, ya?
