It's Polaroid Week, it's Polaroid Week!

Hurray, its that time of year again - polaroid week - and I am excited!!  

These are the first four photos that I've submitted to the Flickr group. I actually took these last weekend, as I thought polaroid week was last week (oops) and as I knew I wouldn't have any time to take them during the week. I'd been saving this pack of film for something special, but that something special never seemed to come along, so instead I set myself a task to take all the photos in my back garden.

Although the first photo didn't work out very well, I was very relieved that the rest of the pack worked, even with the streak down the middle of them all.  I really like the tones of this film and taking these made me excited to try the newer films that the Impossible Project have been producing.

The Farne Islands

I love the English coast and the Farne Islands are a group of islands off the Northumberland coat, not far from Berwick. We spent a couple of hours on a boat tour around the islands and I think it was one the best parts of our holiday as it was so beautiful, especially the wildlife.

Even Harry enjoyed himself - he's a funny little dog in that he loves boats and he was fascinated with the seals, especially when they 'barked' at him, his ears pricked up and he just watched them as we went past.

If you ever have a chance to go to the Farne Islands, I would hugely recommend it - its truly a beautiful place to go.
