I HAVE ROIDS...

...Polaroids that is! And lots of 'em. It has been quite some time since scanning in some roids, so I thought it might be a good idea to get to it! 

A brief history of my roids:

I had been shooting my roids with a Polaroid camera my mum bought me for the car rally in grade 12. It wasn't a cool thing to have an instant camera back then, but in order to win the rally, we needed proof that we did these crazy things. I decided a Polaroid was the answer. 

It collected dust in my closet for years, until an obsession with the lost art surfaced, and I put some film in it. I used it for a year, or so, until someone spilled beer on it and it no longer worked. I had a brief stint with a friends camera while I was away in Calgary and Edmonton, then once again, was without. 

I had been looking for one in Ottawa for about 3 months, before that glorious day that I walked in the the CTC and saw it there. Glad I wanted a coffee that morning, otherwise I would have never gone into the store.

So, in celebration of my last two boxes of film, until I can afford to buy more online that is, I thought I would upload some of my favorite shots. They are from trips to New York, Calgary and Edmonton and some are just from home.

Enjoy.
