Back in 1994, when I was an aspiring but strictly amateur photographer, I discovered Polaroid's wonderful pos/neg film. It gives you the usual instant polaroid with a negative that can be fixed in a sodium sulfite solution. It was the best of both worlds. I used it mostly to take portraits of friends. These are some of my favorites, most of which were taken in my tiny studio apartment on Mulberry Street. I wish I had photographed everyone I knew then with this film, which sadly does not exist anymore.
