For this set, the left two are from the Spectra, while the right two are from my most recently acquired Polaroid camera, a 600 with a "macro" feature that allows close-up shots of around 1-3 feet. The left two are from a different trip up north with my current gf to see Hearst Castle. We tried to get to Big Sur but the road is still closed past Ragged Point. Was hoping that would be open by this summer, but most recent news is that it's not opening until September at earliest.
The Polaroid 600 shots are from two separate trips. The upper shot is of one of the statues at Hearst Castle from the same trip mentioned above. The bottom shot is in the hilly bushland coming away from Big Bear and lake Arrowhead heading out into the desert.
Based on the experiences I've had with the new production Polaroid film I think I'm gonna stick with color film from now on. The B/W film is nice but the colors don't "set" and eventually turn that sepia brown color--fine if you want sepia tones but not if you want to keep that stark contrast. The color film just sort of mellows into that comfy Kodachrome palette you used to see in old National Geographics.
