Polaroid Experiment...

Problem: How do I block Auto-Flash? {Polaroid One600 Ultra Film Camera}

Close-up + with flash
{Light flushes out subject in foreground, great detail and lighting in the background}



1st Attempt:  Impossible Dark Slide (the dark card that spits out upon loading film on Polaroid cam)
{Notice the burn mark from covering the flash. "o_o woe"}

Close-up + blocked flash
{Unfocused foreground, too dark to capture detail of the subject, still great focus in background}


Hmm... my subject's detail was probably lost against the sunlight coming in from the doors. Also, without the flash, the focus is lost on the foreground. To get the detail up front, I may have to take a picture with flash, but not too close to the subject so it doesn't drown out the little guy with a flashy bright light. We'll see...
