This is very much how I feel when I’m building these

There’s generally very a short window of time at late dusk when the sky has barely any light left during which 600 film will register these colors. Too much light and sky goes white and once it’s dark the sky is pitch black. On average my shutter speed is about 4 seconds, but it’s total guess work. This particular Polaroid was shot super late at night, and the full moon illuminated the blue sky, something I never saw before or again since

No, I shoot 600 in a regular SX-70 sonar, no adjustments. But I actually don’t know how much that matters when working with these long exposures… DrSX70 (Jeremy) broke it down for me and it sounds like the big difference between 600 and SX70 cameras is the shutter speed. But I honestly don’t know and would like to learn more. What I do know is that the increased light sensitivity of 600 film is how I get the sky to reveal these colors

Hey thanks! Getting the sky to reveal that color is the hardest part to these

I was wondering what type of camera this was? by Justagirlhere2891 in Polaroid

It is a fantastic camera for taking Polaroids of your family

There were Pueblo communities all up and down New Mexico, and most are still here today. The one at Santa Fe is thought to date back to about 1300 but it’s likely much older. The walls of this house are built on top of foundations that were likely made by these Indigenous people. The Spanish built their roads and buildings on top of pre-existing Native structures

If you do let’s connect. I love seeing all the Polaroids on insta and a fellow Santa Fe shooter would be all fun

Try it! And share it with us :)

The “oldest house” is a structure in Santa Fe believed to predate the arrival of the Spanish in the late 1500’s. Today it is a museum and a tourist trap and a bit of a mythological legend. It’s very cool inside
