Portrait Of An Addict: "Toys In The Attic"

You thought the addict was only addicted to smoking?
No my friend, you'd be wrong :-)

Polaroid 600SE. Superb Polaroid camera, built around the
Mamiya Press camera. Similar body, similar lenses, different
lens mount. That last part about the mount was a dumb move,
makes interchanging lenses on these cameras a near impossible chore,
but it is what it is.

And it is just one of the toys in the attic, yet unseen till now.
I would say the dude in the shot looks like a crazy doomsday prepper with
a big black gas mask/mouth :)

Polaroid 600 SE ,Fuji FP-3000B
0.00s full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Really scary shot of the "Addict". This is one cool toy, rare for sure. Excellent with the Fuji instant film. VV

Love the way the eyes peer over the camera. Great shot!
Hope you will post some more pics taken with this intersting camera.

Maybe you should participate in some meetings "Cameraholics Anonymous" it could help you with your appalling abuse:-) Wonderful image Sam! V
