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.

Get those nasties out of here!

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 :-)

I'm not entirely sure how to say this is good photography without being conflicted with my wife so... I'll go with this.

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! :-)
