It feels like love, it feels like you I have everything that I need You have stolen my heart Love is waiting Musing lazily on love, pondering you I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir, because I'm not myself you see

Awesome Polaroid Photography: Polaroid Mosaics by SicoActiva

Posted by Riz in Photo Streams, Photography  

DAY NINETEEN. And this is why I have to find and order Polaroid films already. I still haven’t, and it’s been 3 months already since R got me my Polaroid One600 camera. It’s so difficult finding polaroid films in the Philippines. Stocks always run out, and ordering from US/UK/Canada may be easier but the shipping to Manila is too expensive.

So while I go on with my quest to acquire boxes of Polaroid films, I get myself inspired with people who are doing awesome Polaroid photography.

Check out SicoActiva’s one-of-a-kind Polaroid mosaics, taken with SX-70.

I have to get myself Polaroid 600 films!! I’ve been using a lot of Instax sheets with my Fuji Mini Instax, but nothing still beats the real creamy, soft-colored images that come out of a real Polaroid Camera. I’ve seen awesome images taken with SX-70 too, Susannah and Amanda are my favorite SX-70 photographers. I think an SX-70 is next on my list! :)

30 Days of Awesome, 19/30.

I’m shipping a flat-rate box to Alvs within the next couple of months, you might want to have some film shipped over. Let me know, just email :)

I love your blog!

This will only fuel your love for Polaroids: http://gizmodo.com/5335175/a-house-wallpaper-made-with-a-thousand-and-one-polaroids

I also have a renewed interest in manual typewriters -just found an Olympiette typewriter from the 70s in Canada…
