Thanks guys. I've started a photo album this year that I want to fill with one instant photo for each day of 2016. This photo is my favorite so far.
One reason for this project is to get really comfortable with my Super Graphic and learn large format photography (including movements and lighting with flashbulbs). So I got a Fuji instant film back for that camera.
But I also carry a 440 or 450 Polaroid camera around for snapshots in b&w or color. And that's how I ended up with this photo.
Garage Still Life
One day when coming home from work, I noticed this little ensemble of things on the garage wall. This is photographed exactly as I found it, nothing re-arranged.
