Welcome to Polaroids from Amsterdam.
These are all unedited scans of actual Polaroids shot with the Polaroid EE 100 Special or the Polaroid ProPack on Fuji FP100c film.
The rules:
- The camera used must be as simple as possible. Only a simple automatic light metering system may be used.
- The film must be shot on instant-film which is not past it's sell-by date to limit the manipulation possible by development of traditional film or digital manipulation.
- The film must be in color. Special lighting is not acceptable. (If there is too little light for exposure a single flash can be attached to the camera).
- Autofocus is not acceptable.
- Optical work and filters are forbidden.
- Shooting must be done on location. Props and sets must not be brought in.
- Portraits must be shot with full acknowledgment of the person portrayed and must be taken within 20 meters of the place where the first contact was made.
- In case of a portrait the subject must look into the camera. The only acception is if the subject can't be recognizable.
- No more than five shots may be taken of the same subject.
- The photographer must not be credited.
