the Missing Links

Tue Feb 28, 2006, 9:23 AM
(...between beasts and Polaroid gods?)

Hi folks-- not much of my life/events to report at the moment (some of you may have noticed some recently-posted photos...I'm hoping to get some more up in the next month or so as I can).

Wanted to post a couple of new & updated links to websites featuring works by excellent Polaroid photographers...patron and marvel as you can. :-)

[link]

Polaroid photography/synethesia by photographer Mike Slack. The page's sound effects of a 680 SLR (like I use) focusing and snapping an instant photo were great in and of themselves.

Updated link from a previous journal entry pointing to photographer Scott Hammond's polished, extensive travel-Polaroids across five years. His site sports some provocative studies on American landscapes, subcultures, and spaces. He also has a sister-Polaroid page on MySpace ([link]) and a Polaroid-themed merchandise page ([link]). Check 'em out.

'Tis all for now. I return from whence I came. :-)
