Thanks, Frank, I enjoyed shooting it, too. It is a vintage 1952 BMW bike and their owners.

That's real nice. A nice portrait, and a contrast that is tamer than what I can usually get out of the instant film.

Super nice! Motorcycles beat fuzzy waterfalls anyday. And to have people part of the story makes it a very interesting photo. The aero ektar DOF helps relay the mental focus of the people too; machine, tools, and some beer if I get thirsty.

Traded for a box of Polaroid Type 52 that expired in 1989. Still works, a bit washed out to 50% grey. Nothing like the smell of the (still wet) coaters. Amazed it pulls evenly after 24 years! (They must have stored it right.)

I was out in the backyard yesterday shooting some tests on a Wista 8x10 I just re-bellowed and a 5x7 Near-Dorff that I adapted a back for when I remembered I had a few sheets of 4x5 Polaroid left. The type-59 wasn't much good, the type-55 seemed fine. I had two sheets of 55, shot one for the negative, one for the print.
