Impossible - Instant Cats

Polaroid JobPro Instant Camera Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ Film - A couple more images from my first pack of Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ instant film.

The Cat on the left is Kuron Neko, this sly little kitten managed to work her way into our home by hanging herself by a rear paw in our hedges. Her weak cries and injured foot played in our sympathies and earned her indoor status. After limping around for a few days to insure her permanent indoor status, the paw magically healed. Mission Accomplished.

The Cat on the right is Greymon, son of Bob. He is the current dominate male of the neighborhood's ferrel clan. They keep the mole and snake population under control and like to leave the kills on the front porch in exchange for food...

Impossible - Instant Spring

Polaroid JobPro Instant Camera Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ Film - Spring is here and with it comes color. A good time to break out the new Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ Instant Film and fire away.... Actually, I have had this pack since Autumn, but am just now getting around to finishing the pack. Like most Polaroid 600 Series camera, the JobPro is as basic as it gets. Fixed shutter speed, the built in flash fires whether it is needed on not and the only exposure control is the lighter/darker slider on the front of the camera. The JobPro does have a built in Close-Up Lens that allows for close-up shots between 2 to 4 ft. (0.6 to 1.2m), but correcting for parallax error with a marginally accurate viewfinder can make framing a challenge. Ah the joys of instant photography Polaroid style. Still, somehow, the results are worth it.

Instant Film - Demon Sheep

Polaroid JobPro Instant Camera Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ Film - Finally got through my first pack of Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ and am ready to start posting the results... This is my first shot. The "Demon Sheep" was a garage sale find and the creepiest stuffed animal I have run across in while. Its red eyes are leering out of a dog cage in this shot, and a cage is exactly where this thing belongs.

The Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ is everything you would expect from and integral type instant film. Muted, almost pastel colors, low contrast and slightly "unsharp," all combining to bring back the beloved Polaroid Film look of the late 20th century. The is the real "instagram."

I am sure it was fine in 1996

Polaroid JobPro Camera Polaroid 779 Film Expiration Date 05/96 - Some times you roll the dice. A risky ebay purchase of of Polaroid 779 that expired in 1996. 779 was the "Professional" varient of Polaroid 600 film, usual sold in bulk to commercial users. Surprisingly the batteries in the film packs were still good, but that was about all that worked. This was the 1st shot I took and the only one with any real image to speak of. It is almost creepy, but this out of date Polaroid weirdness was worth the price of admission. Look closely, there is an image there, I promise.
