Fujifilm Instax: It’s My Fucking Birthday Triptych
[Camera: Fujifilm Instax Wide 300 – instant 300 film]
It’s My Fucking Birthday – A trio of depressing AF photos I’ve taken with accompanying haiku.
The contouring in the last picture is all my own work. – Dougie MUA.
It is my birthday
So many fucking candles
And I’m asthmatic
I’d rather have been
Utterly empty with you
Than alone today
Candles blown out
A birthday wish has been made
But nothing will change
Thanks. x
Polaroids: Snapchat Filters for Polaroid Triptych
[Camera: Polaroid SLR 680 – impossible project 600 colour film (out of date – 11/15)]
OMFG just worked out how to get Snapchat filters for Polaroid.
Butterfly halo
Airbrushes, slims and sparkles
And that is okay
A crown of flowers
Can’t alter promiscuity –
So don’t be stupid
I’m a little dog
It doesn’t make me a hoe
I look cute AF
Polaroids: Redemption Triptych
[Camera: Polaroid Impulse AF – impossible project 600 colour film (out of date – 11/14)]
Immoral sex acts –
Slowly digging your own grave
With favours of flesh
Gratify desires
Tie up heavy burdens – then
Remove your panties
Compassionate heart
Casting off darkness in light
Corrupted by faith
The sun still rises
On the wicked and unjust
So do what you love
Coin-Operated – Arcade Machines, Glasgow
[Chinatown, Cowcaddens]
These photos were taken in the Chinatown Mall, Glasgow.
Four accompanying haiku document my early sexual experiences.
Fifty pence per play
Clammy hands on warm joysticks
While button flicking
Feeling the pressure
Friends watching over shoulder
Only one life left
Hammering controls
A new challenger enters
Knock out! – play again?
The countdown begins
Insert coins to continue
Lost it – GAME OVER
Polaroids: ABANDONED // BROKEN // WASTE OIL
[Camera: Polaroid Impulse Portrait – impossible project 600 colour film]
E.U. exit plan
is dystopian future –
you can smoke in pubs
no more immigrants
close down the borders – nation
of jobless racists
Britain votes to leave
manufacturing is dead
oil is now worthless
