Magic of Polaroid Instant Cameras
August 1st, 2008The fist time that I ever used one of the Polaroid instant cameras, I was a child. This item was too fun for words but I was a little apprehensive about touching the picture as it developed. The idea of ruining the photo just because I touched it was too much for me to handle back then.
Careful as I was, there were few photos that wound up with fingerprints. The ones that did wind up with marks serve to be great reminders of my experiences with Polaroid instant cameras over the years. There is a story behind each photo and another story behind each fingerprint.
I guess that the appeal of the Polaroid instant cameras is rooted in childhood.
