I just bought a polaroid land camera for $4.23 at the thrift store today. What a find! I went in looking for furniture and came out with a camera. :) I don't know if it works, the batteries were left in it and are all corroded to hell, the film that was in it was from the 70's. It's in nice shape though (other than the battery compartment). Hopefully it works.
On another note my friend Ash and I are heading out to California in less than a month. We're driving, crashing in campsites along the way and staying in LA for a few days before heading home. It should be an awesome photography experience. I am thrilled.
