Polaroid

 

I put a magnifying glass in front of the lens, but there was too much light and thus, the blur. Ever since I was a kid I’ve been fascinated with tiny, secret worlds.  It’s as if such a world is secret because it goes unnoticed and when it’s noticed you realize it’s magical, and then you want to find all the other hidden places. Imagine a life underground, or under the wooden fence, between the leaves. (Don’t cut it down). Something different than big things with size and glory, buildings to the sky, people stomping and wheeling around in the large bustling world.

Letting the kids waste film with a toy camera, the super blurry one is the photo I darkened just to see what it was, because Taj pressed the clicker a buncha times like he was expecting the photo to pop out or show up on a screen. Pretty awesome results. Leela is improving and she almost four.

I took this polaroid yesterday, just when the wind started moving again.
