Polaroids at the Circus 2014

Not exactly your typical architectural subject but I love taking photographs of the colourful circus tents when they are in town. Not just any old photos though - its always polaroids for me. There is a wonderful feeling of nostalgia when you rip the film out of the camera and wait patiently for that moment of reveal. You pull the print away from the processing sheet and give birth to a new image. Is it a dud or a winner? In this age of unlimited digital copies there is something special about holding a "one off" print. Thankfully fuji are still producing FP-100C and FP-3000b films to go with my instant film camera.
