3 x 3 Polaroids

Very imaginative title, don't we think?

I remembered I own a Instax Mini polaroid camera that I haven't used in ages. I had all of nine frames left on it and I decided to make good use of them.

I wanted to take some really relaxed afternoon portraits, not fuzz about with makeup, hair, clothes etc. This is also the only time I ever use a flash. I have actually NEVER used the flash on my Nikon D7200, I prefer available light. I do feel like the flash does suit polaroids pretty well and I always tone it down a little so it isn't too harsh.

I already ordered a big pack more of Instax film, if you wish to see more polaroid pictures of me. Let me know if you have any suggestions/wishes. I will definitely not promise to grant them.

Sort:  

Chemical precursors, brownian motion frozen in the fine grain.

Strobe-lit intensity on past lives, passed time.

Justify, demand. Frozen eyes, future-focused.

Until the final pulse dims.

Latent emotion in fading dyes.

Best intentions trapped in plastic purgatory.

Maybe you could pick up that thing you dropped on the floor.

I can't see it from here but if you bend over you could tell me what it is😉

Lovely shoot to say the least

No problem Eve! Someday if I ever figure out my Nikon I want to shoot you ;)

Not trying to be too romantic - but I just absolutel love the butt pic from the top row (the middle pic obv) :)

Coming to my wish: Make a picture like the one above here: https://steemit.com/nature/@theaustrianguy/a-beautiful-sunday-hike-to-the-laudachsee - Ok, that was a cheap one :P

But really, keep up the work - greets from Austria!

I am from Austria too - Hallo :-)

My wife has loved the photos I've shown her of @eveuncovered so luckily, I don't have to get into a conflict with her by commenting. :D

Aww, say hi to your wife!

Oh I will :)

Haha, I think that already tells enough! :D

very vintage and beautiful! How much time did you have between pressing the shutter and the photo being taken? just curious :)

Thanks! Hmm, I'd reckon something like 6-10 seconds, Instax has a pretty long self timer, which I appreciate.

Right. Pretty amazing what you are able to pull off in that time-span.
Keep up the good work! It's clear you enjoy what you do :)

Абсолютно согласен с тобой ! Красавица )

Awesome! I love polaroids! These are great, and I love how you presented them on a white background with chipping paint.. it complements polaroids I think :) definitely do more polaroids, they're fun.

Thanks! The chipped paint wasn't actually a creative decision, but turned out to work really well for these! :)

No grande finale?

Would be nice to draw you ;-)

Do I have to stay still for that? ;D

Yes of course, I wanna draw you! :-)
