PX No.540

picturecrossing No.540 (SX No.453) Another virtually blank shot. It was very hard to keep these pictures covered in the freezing wind so I got several blank or obscured shots. You could barely make out some lines and people walking in the back of this picture shot at the Bauhaus Archiv in Berlin, so I drew on it and collaged with trash and found objects.
CAMERA: Polaroid SX-70 Alpha 1 SE - c.1978
FILM: Impossible Project PX600 Silver Shade (box #430 11052010)
This pack had an odd "#32" printed on the back as if they were actually using old Polaroid backing materials.
DATE SHOT: 12/30/2010
DATE COLLAGED: 10/2012

LEFT: PX No.540 was left in Savannah, Georgia, USA on 11/13/2012 at the Greyhound Bus station near West Youmans Street, (which seemed to be under renovation) just below a red fire alarm. (see photo below) I left it there while transferring busses on my 8-hour ride from Jacksonville to Atlanta.
see where it was left in Savannah, Georgia:
