The Polaroid - a photo on Flickriver

The Polaroid

            I have taken tens of thousands of pictures since I got my first Kodak Instamatic camera at age 9 - film, negatives, darkroom edits, scans, digital, and, of course, Polaroid. I still have a couple of original Polaroid cameras, and my brother gave me the coolest Polaroid Bluetooth printer last Christmas. 

While looking through some old pictures in a shoebox yesterday I found this Polaroid and scanned it. Honestly, I don't remember taking this picture, but a few of my friends would recognize this young man. He was part of a youth program I ran in the 90's and tragically passed away in 2014.

That makes this forgotten Polaroid even more special. 

American photographer Aaron Siskind said, “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”

In memory of Wayne Horning [1981-2014]

Taken on: November 10, 1995
