Title: 'roid week 2012 / Polaroid Week 2012
Post by: jannx on August 16, 2012, 09:26:36 PM

I'm not an admin for this pool however it's an interesting one and I've seen at least one member's work submitted. The pool will run until Friday August 17 at midnight. It's Polaroid or instant film only and a max of 2 submissions every 24 hour cycle. Some interesting images and film too.

If the mention of another film pool is 'ultra vires' here at filmwasters.com please just delete this thread.

thx and regards, Jan

As they say on the BBC, "Other Websites promoting the use of film-based photography are available."

I'm suprised nobody else has mentioned 'roid week yet around these parts. I haven't had time to shoot anything new for the week, but I have like 200 Polaroids scanned for slow upload.
