spectral

Recently I scored a free polaroid spectra camera from a woman on craigslist (sweet, though with film prices the way they are, getting a free polaroid camera is kinda like getting a free elephant.) The camera was pretty finicky, occasionally not spitting out the film properly (granted, I was trying to trick it into doing multiple exposures) and impossible film is sensitive and so easily overexposed. ~~I may hold out for a spectra pro and give this one away, anyone interested?~~ The camera has moved on to a new home. Bye, little spectra!

(polaroid purists beware: this image started off as PZ680 color shade film, but I screwed up the exposure and the colors were all washed out... Throwing a cross processing layer on in photoshop helped immensely, as well as some contrast tweaks. This is the full frame, but straight-out-of-camera it is not.)

You will never be alone, you hear so deep
a sound when autumn comes. Yellow
pulls across the hills and thrums,
or the silence after lightning before it says
its names - and then the clouds’ wide-mouthed
apologies. You were aimed from birth:
you will never be alone. Rain
will come, a gutter filled, and Amazon,
long aisles - you never heard so deep a sound,
moss on rock, and years.
You turn your head -
that’s what the silence meant: you are not alone.
The whole wide world pours down.

- William Stafford
