Save The Polaroids!

There was a rumor going around that Polaroid was discontinuing polaroid film. I recently found out that this rumor was actually true. I find this quite sad. I love polaroid film. It's the only film I use besides my film camera for photography. 

I've taken over 200 polaroid photos in the past year and didn't plan to stop. Now I have to stalk up on film and polaroid film isn't cheap which sucks
. I mean why would polaroid do this? I know plenty of people who still take polaroid pictures. 

Who doesn't love instant pictures? I know I do! I've also learned polaroid art. You can do a lot of things with polaroids that you cant do with regular film pictures and digital pictures (obviously). You can rip them apart and they can still look cool, you can
 transfer them onto wood, make them warmer or cooler in color just by using a water bottle. Oh and you can draw on them! I love art and one of my favorite forms of art is dying with no real cause. 

Ugh.. big companies.. they don't think of anyone but themselves

Maybe you should start an internet petition. Look at you writing your second post! You're going to love this.

One of my friends should get a kick out of this. She works for a company that makes some of that film. :)

Ok. Movie time.

Ok I love your blog but don't like mine at all. Why is it that I can give everyone else a look they love but I can't stand my own blog? Ugh.

Well, enjoy. I love it.
