Recently my parents gave me an old Polaroid Spectra camera that they purchased nearly twenty years ago. The camera was in their closet collecting dust and they figured I could add the camera to my ever growing collection of "collectible" cameras. I was delighted to find out that I could still purchase film for the camera and it still worked. Rather than put the camera on the shelf with my other old cameras I decided to put it to use. Rather than determine what camera setting was required or what ASA film to use or what length lens to use my focus with the Polaroid is composition and trying to portray the ordinary in a slightly unordinary way. The images in this gallery are high quality scans from the original Polaroid image. To obtain prints from the original images please contact the photographer.
