Playing with Polaroid
Went for a little walk this weekend but it wasn’t particularly indusive to photograpy so when I got back I took out the Polaroid film I’d received over the last week and played with comparing type 59 with type 79 (yeah, really useful now it’s redundant). Anywy, the results made me realise that type 79 is a lot more resilient to long exposures.. here are the results
The left image is type 59 unfiltered and the right image is type 59 with an 81D..
The centre image is the feature image on the article as it’s the most realistic but I quite like the almost cyanotype look of the 59..
The exposure was 10-20 seconds (longer for the type 79 picture as the sun was dropping and it was taken inside but with ambient light).
The picture is cropped too tight because the 4×5 polaroids lose about a quarter of an inch on each side.
