Golden Hour on Polaroid Reclaimed Purple

Thought I would share some snapshots of my friend while we were testing out the film. These were taken on SX-70r with natural light plus flash. I ultimately decided not to use flash in the studio, it was the right choice (I will be posting those next week).

Anyone going to one of the album release parties?

I rsvp'd for St.Augustine, it's the day before my birthday! Hopefully I can make some new friends to go out for ice cream after! I have been avoiding this album so I can listen to it as a complete work of art...can't wait!

What is the fastest remote shutter for SX-70r?

Ive used the app but there about a one second delay. Made it useless for county fair photos. Was annoying in the studio, I barely use it. I am looking for a button cable or something bluetooth, whatever is fastest.​

Can anyone out there explain why my acceptance won't go up?

Okay this is my understanding. Acceptance rate is calculated from the LAST 100 exclusive trip requests. I started my Friday at 69%. I need 70% for Platinim/Diamond. I accepted 5 exclusive requests. I rejected 0. Today I still am at 69%.

I have been trying for 70% for a while. I notice my acceptance rate doesnt seem accurate. So I made a serious mental note last time I went out since I was at 69%.

I chat or call Uber and they say "its a confusing metric." Wtf is so confusing? Every new elusive trip request should bump the old one from the queue, right?

Someone, please help me because its hurting my brain. I understand basic, elementary math. Or maybe I dont. I feel like Uber support is gaslighting me.​

These purple photos are dark...any advice?

My goodness, took a pack of Purple in my SX-70 yesterday, and put regular color in my Flip. I took photos at a baby's birthday outdoors and ugh, everyone's skin was so dark. Flip photos were fine. Would upping the exposure and putting it on a tripod help?

Handed off my camera, pleased with the photo!

I don't have a lot of photos of myself, but I feel like the Polaroid just does such a great job of representing people in a pretty honest way. I absolutely loathe cell phone cameras! My friend did an excellent job for her first time picking up the SX-70!

"Howdy Partner" by Phoebe Joynt in Murray Hill, Jacksonville, FL

This absolutely gorgeous mural stopped me in my tracks! The sunlight was just perfect that day, the photo has not had any color correction/enhancements (although I never, ever do this to my photos anyways). Photographed on Polaroid SX-70r.

Anyone here a patient of Dr. Thea Price at Mayo?

I want to see if anyone else here has been working with her. She and her team have changed my husband's life for the better, an actual light at the end of the tunnel. Because he works full time and needs his job for the good health insurance, we have had to go a lot slower than she wished. His first 3 surgeries were essentially 'cleanings' and I cannot believe how fast his recovery was, we were able to focus on healing over pain management. We are cutting out skin for surgery #4, but way less than if we had gone somewhere else initially and just got the deroofing like so many others have had to do. They will be using a wound vac and I think fish skin? Idk but it's something newer for HS.

Thank you Dr. Price for giving my husband a chance at a real future. She has stated she wished she could see patients at the start, at stage 1, before it ever snowballed to the awful state my husband ended up in. I do not know when she is publishing, but there is so much more hope and real results coming for the average person with HS. She is developing techniques so that even folks in places such as rural Africa can get care for this cruel disease.
