This makes me really sad. I want to stock up, but Polaroid film doesn't actually keep that long.

Ah, I see from the original post that Fuji are still making it. Still, I sort of wish I hadn't wasted my last pack photographing my shoes for shoe boxes!

Focusing on digital....kinda late to the game, aren't we? This makes me want a non-digital polaroid camera. I wanted one when I was a kid and my parents wouldn't let me get one because "the film is so expensive," so I was left envying everyone else's.

I got a black and red polaroid camera with a matching case for my 9th birthday, yes I still own it 20 years later.

It is a very sad time for Polaroid artists. Thank you so much for featuring my purple artichoke--I really appreciate it.

Thank you futurowoman!

I still my land camera polaroid and some old film that turns everything blue. Looks like I'll hang onto it a bit longer and save it for something worthy of a polaroid!
