It's been a long time since I cranked up a Polaroid, but I used to take a fair number of pictures with the SX-70.  Its color was really pretty good, and there are some people who are convinced that there's something special about Polaroid color.

I didn't click since I already have a pile of old Polaroids, but sorry he's a scammer. But since this thread has opened, I hope some of the rest of you look up some of the interesting artists who have used Polaroid film in the past.
