take pictures like roidrage on flickr

and the other night took some pictures at my local hangout. It seems that most pictures are instantly better when taken with a poloroid. The cost of film is depressing, and I have to monitor what I take a picture of. I used to think that I took really good pictures, and then I got a digital. Maybe having the preciousness of film, and a limited number of pictures makes photographs better. Maybe it’s looking through a view finder. Also, people are amazingly receptive to having their pictures taken with poloroids, and only a few want to keep the photo.

but I am working on a photographic representation of the people in Shreveport. It’s called “I am Shreveport.”, creatively enough, and it will be part of an art exibit at a new artspace opening downtown. I wish I had the means to do this project with real film and a darkroom, but since the exibit is a collaborative effort, I can keep it on a small scale with my printing limitations.

I’ll also post the pictures on my flickr when they are ready, so my 43T friends and see them.

These are really amazing. roidrage’s photos
