Polaroids in Colour and Black and White

I took a few more images using a different model with my Polaroid passport camera, following the style of my previous images, cutting up the body, and doing minimal photoshop work to re-arrange the images so that the lines meet-up better. Again, keeping the skin-tones particularly smooth and softened was important whilst maintaining the rough contrasting frame.

The first few were in colour, finishing off the pack of film I had in previously, the second series, which can be seen further down the page, were taken with a high-iso black and white film. I had hoped that, with using the 3000 iso black and white film that they would yeild somewhat grainier results, more like my previous Bronica images, unfortunately this was not the case, not that I was particulary disappointed with the images I did manage to capture. The lack of large-grain despite the fast film speed may be due to the limited size of the images, 31/4" x 41/4", and the process of making the Polaroid is more or less a contact-print, rather than an enlargement as you would get from a conventional film.

All these images will be included in my selection of 10 final Polaroid images which I intend to enlarge in prints upto A1 size for display (whilst I may blow-up a couple of images as examples, the cost of enlarging and printing all the images without an actual venue to display them is a little excessive).
