The magic of limitation
Written imperfectly by a human, me, no AI generation used
I love video and photos. While I don’t have much social media or online presence, I frequently capture and make content for my family.
The best addition last year was a vintage 1980’s Polaroid camera. It takes 600 film that costs $2 - $3 dollars per shot. I’m not rich, sole income for a family of 5, and I don’t like wasting money.
But the album we are creating with these photos is the best album we’ve ever made because we have to really think and consider what we will shoot with this camera.
It just has me thinking, if someone from 1980 saw my iphone and 10000 photo’s, they would probably think I am nuts for loving this camera, but something special is definitely lost when possibilities are endless.
