Polaroid Inspired

I've been inspired lately by the polaroid photographs I grew up with as a child. I love the colours and unpredicatability of the images. I also love the square format. Well in searching the internet I came upon two different sites that caught my eye...

(1) Grant Hamilton from the US has a site called sxseventy.com in which he he takes polaroid images, then scans them and blows them up and reprints them. The images are highly graphic which I enjoy.

(2) An app called Poladroid, which you can download and produce your own (low resolution) polaroids. I haven't tried to print them but I'm sure they would come up as good 6x4's. The app can be downloaded from poladroid.net.

Here is an example of an image I made with the Nikon D90 and them processed through Poladroid. Look out for more of these as I create them.
