Came up with sort of a wacky and fun photo idea tonight, something fun and very different than my work in the Mae Sot dump with the families. The
idea would be to use the new instant color Impossible Project 8x10 film to do a photo portrait series here in Edmonton. My subjects would be the male cross dresser
community I met a few times several years back. I would have to reunite with them, make friends and get access. I
could either do in studio portraits with the Nikon 300mm f5.6 (like the
Sex Worker technique) or environmental portraits with my
little used Fuji 250mm f6.7 lens. The camera would be either my Masterview 8x10 or
dads gift Deardorff 8x10 camera. I would need to get me a polaroid
processor and holder.
Who knows if this will happen? I have so much on my plate right now I am not sure I have the time, still it is fun to think of and plan such things. Will think over this idea later today when I try to go to sleep after my security nightshift. Thinking (fantasizing?) about photography projects always relaxes me.
Here is a link to the use of the film and how it all works.

Note* There is also a black and white version of the film selling at similar price. I think with crossdresser portraits that colour stuff might work best.
