My friend's Lotus Elise... Sweet! Usually the cars you see in Polaroid photos are old classics to match the old film, but I think this new car looks quite good in Pola colors. :)
The LED Crown Fountains at Millennium Park in Chicago, IL. I happened to catch this person standing in the overspray from the fountains. Probably felt good on a summer night. :)
Took this outside of the Chicago Theatre (IIRC). Was super surprised how awesome the colors turned out. It was one of the first Polaroid shots I took at night that so wowed me and made me watch out for more opportunities to use the film for neon and night shots. This is definitely one of my favorite Polaroid shots.
Chicago Theatre sign. Even with the blur from long shutter speed, I like the look of this because of the colors. Oh, Polaroid 600 film, how I miss you... :(
The combination of color in this photo (yeah, Polaroid 600 film!) and the already exotic looks of the Cloud Gate sculpture in Millennium Park makes the whole photo look alien.
More Polaroid 600 film, nighttime shooting goodness. Blurry, but great color.
I take lots of photos of my cats because they're easy subjects, so why not feature them at least once for 'Roid Week? :)  Incidentally, when I first took this photo, the overall cast was a lot less green, almost looking like a faded, but normal Polaroid shot.  However, as the afternoon wore on, the green cast became a lot more pronounced.  Thought I should scan it now, lest it get even greener in a few hours!  Ah, expired film...

Also, it's a lot harder to take candids of the cats with a Polaroid since the camera is so dang loud. :-/

This is a shot from my first pack of Artistic TZ film.  I bought 10 packs when The Impossible Project announced it was their last stock of the Paul Giambarba Edition.  I thought there was a lot more ATZ film left so I waited to buy some, and now I've waited too long. *sigh*  Same thing happened with the last of the 600 film in retail stores!  

Oh well, at least I'm shooting ATZ film now, and even though there are lots of defects and the color is very greenish-blue, isn't that what expired Polaroid film is about?  Lovely character.

This is also my first attempt at manipulating an ATZ shot (or any Pola).  I used the PDA stylus tip on one of my favorite multi-pens to draw/scribble in some texture.  Pretty rudimentary, but I liked that I was finally able to experiment a little with this technique.
