shake it


What better occasion than an otherwordly pink sky to give a new camera a go? My adorable boyfriend got me the Fuji Instax 210 (wide) for Christmas and I couldn't be happier! I thought it would be the perfect companion for summer adventures, catching sparkling sun reflection on the sea... but I couldn't resist taking a crack at it when I looked out my window the other morning and saw this...












Aren't the colours vibrant? I was quite impressed. There's a little macro lense that comes with it, which I've tried as well... I definitely need more practice, but this picture of beautiful succulents found on flickr gives me great hope!

I love the idea of this!! I always wanted a polaroid camera when I was younger and never got one but this is really cool and not too pricey! might put it on my birthday wishlist for August! I can definitely see myself using this a lot!

@ Emma: you should, it's a lot of fun!x

@ Célestine: Your little pictures are so cute! Where do you buy your film? Do you have a tip for cheap ones?x

@ Maisy: Hi Maisy :) thank you for your comment! x

@ Louise: the lense looks a bit like a magnifying glass or strong spectacles, if you have any of those handy, they might work!x

@ litte henry lee: I can't wait to see what you do with it, you have magic skills x
