Today I went to the Old Polaroid factory. It is now in use by The Impossible Project. Those guys took over the plant a couple of years back and managed to created a good looking black and white film and a very nice color film. PX680. Today they had a couple of tours through the plant for which you had to enlist via e-mail. Of course I realized it too late and all tours were fully booked. Since I was in the neighborhood anyway I decided to go anyway because I had a broken sx-70. I wanted them to have a look at it. At the same time I asked if there was a spot left on the tour. Luckily for they could squeeze me in. So I enjoyed the tour. Too bad my camera was broken beyond repair but I left it there and got two packs of their new film. You will see the photo's a bit later. All in all a good day indeed.

A real bad foto of three cages with rescued hamsters in it. If you look closely you can see it.

Today a quite day. Nice weather but despite the sun a bit chilly sometimes. Cold enough not to notice the sunburn that is forming on exposed skin parts.



In case if you are wondering if I went to france this weekend. No this is in Maastricht as wel.


30-04-2011 Koninginnedag (Queensday)

As you can see a couple of days are missing. That was April. As of today I will miss no more days. With the exception of running out of film. But then I will have still Polaroid, Impossible Project or Fuji FP instant film. So No more excuses for me!

Anyway today it was Queensday in Maastricht as well as in the rest of the Netherlands. I went there in pleasant company and had a great time. Watching people, buying books and enjoying the sun.
