Eskbank Railway YardsThis looks to clear to be part of the photo.. Are you using creative software to add this? Nope. Medium format lenses are a world unto their own in terms of sharpness, contrast etc. This is almost exactly the same as the original Polaroid. I say exactly because this monitor tends to render things a little darker than most. It looks the same to me though :) 
 It's been a week of highs and lows. For the most part it has been concentrated around my prac - a period of time that forms a part of my Master of Teaching degree where I go and teach in a school. It is extremely time consuming and very mentally taxing. I haven't had much time left for much outside of teaching except my family.
This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.
However, yesterday afternoon I took my eldest daughter out (4 1/2) to take photos of the sunset at a favourite local spot. She had her Focal brand point and shoot film camera which she used to take "photos" of the cows with (the sunset was soon forgotten when she saw the cows). And me? I got so caught up with taking photos of her taking photos of the cows that I missed the sunset :) Today (18/10/08) is World Toy Camera Day (WTCD) and to celebrate we went into the front yard and played with the Diana. Tonight I'm going to load some slide film in her Focal camera to Xpro :D As for the shot, I've decided to expand the exhibition concept to include Lithgow as a whole though focusing on five specific "experiences" of Lithgow. I took this concept from one of the tourist boards so when I can scan that negative from my Olympus Trip things might make a little bit more sense. This particular shot is at Eskbank Railway Yards, as the title suggests, and is still on Inch street just a few hundred meters from the Blast Furnace. Comments

with a Polaroid back uses the full width of
the back to make the image. It comes out with
two idents (like seen here) but I normally crop them out.

I was using a WLF so I had to angle the
camera up slightly, meaning some loss of
right angles. The plan was to use these
polaroids to provide a visual cue for the
next visit, so if I can find the opportunity,
I'm keen to head back with the uni's 75mm
shift lens for the RB.
Definitely keen on that! I'm still pretty
much booked solid until the 7th of November,
but after that I want to head up for a sunset
ath Lithgow....
I used to read your twitter work related
posts with interest because I knew you were a
teacher, and I was trying to guage what I was
getting myself in for! Guess you're going to
take out the Vivitar?
Love that group :)
Yeah. I got the prints back today, and she
relived the whole event all over again,
explaining it to the whole family :)
Finding location...
