Too lazy to come up with original content, so I’ll just steal something from my own blog:

My D70 is still waiting for repairs, and they called today saying that it won’t be another 7 days until they can even take a look to find out what’s wrong. Oh well, I sort of understand, with the repair centre being closed for Christmas and all.

What does that mean to me? I have to find other ways to take photos. I’ve finished two rolls of film on the F90X and they should be ready tomorrow, although I won’t have a way to put them online as of yet. I’m too impatient and like my photos immediately as I do with a digital camera, so over Christmas, I’ve been getting myself busy with my vintage Polaroid camera.

The black and white, type 667 film is brilliant, and that’s what I’ll be showing you in today’s post. Be warned, I don’t have a proper scanner and these are just photos of the prints taken when my D70 still worked. They look heaps better in real life, nice contrasty blacks and brilliant sharpness.

My very first photo, I was pleasantly surprised.

I really liked this one, shows something you don’t usually find in Melbourne.

And this one is just cool.

Parliament House:

I have more! I’ll add them in a later post. I’m really, really disappointed that I don’t have a proper gallery to put up my photos and all that I’ve had in the meantime is my Facebook gallery (~400 photos).
