The Life of a Polaroid
The Life of a Polaroid, originally uploaded by norbography.
For the Gen Y people who have never seen a Polaroid develop. Sort of like chimping in slo-mo.
This was shot with a 5D and 24-70f/2.8L lens on a tripod. I tried to line it up with where I took the shot with the Polaroid.
PanelPop, an interesting concept.
Here is an interesting concept in photography, or any art for that matter. From the FAQ at www.panelpop.com.
PanelPop is a framed art surface with multiple incarnations and future potential in architecture,
housing and whatever else Tony bends his attention towards. The current (tested) uses included.
Digital images are printed directly onto the panel using UV-cured ink.
The Photo Panel is scratch and weather-resistant so doesn’t require glass to protect it.
Upload one of your own photographs (link on most pages of the site) and enjoy the thrill of framing it into life.

Rollip – Create Polaroids from your photos!
First there was Poladroid, and now, a new piece of software to create faux ‘Roids out of any digital photo. I haven’t used it yet, so I have no idea how it works, but it does look the goods.
You could always buy a real Polaroid camera. 🙂
If you try it out, let me know how it goes.

There is just something about Polaroid shots. I love the look of them. Luckily, because it turns out to cost about $2.40 each shot.

8 Tips for Photographing babies
Move over Anne Geddes, armed with a huge pumpkin, a sunflower and the guide below, I am going to take over the baby photography market.
Actually, I have had some success with baby photos before, but it is another job I wouldn’t want to do full time. I was lucky, young Jack was a fine looking little fellow (see photo below) and he had character from the moment I saw him. It was also a very laid back shoot, at the hospital he was born at, which made things even easier.
On the flip side to that. Can you imagine what some mothers are like? They would be directing you to make their baby look like an angel, and lets face it, there are some bloody ugly babies around. (I know, Satan may as well reserve me a spot for that comment.) Admit it, you have seen an ugly baby, there are too many of them for you not to have. Luckily, mothers are so overflowing with hormones, they usually think their child is a cherub, and it doesn’t matter if you dressed the baby in a hessian sack and plonked it on a welders bench, they would probably be happy. But there would still be the odd one that would make your life hell.
So if you still want to get into baby photography, click the link below.
