POLAROID ROUNDUP | APRIL 2017 | ABIGAIL CRONE

Everything feels chaotic just now, both the world in general, and my personal life. That’s made meditation an appealing idea to me. Maybe somehow finding a bit of inner peace can combat all this chaos. If we all take the time to be still for a few minutes maybe the storm will calm. 

I’m not sure really, but it’s something that’s been on my mind, and something I’ve been wanting to explore a bit more. This collection of photos is the beginning of that exploration. I hope they can calm a bit of the chaos that’s been surrounding you.

 

SUBMIT

Every month the FSC features a Polaroid Roundup that is open to all.  You may only submit one (1) photo and it *must* be a jpeg file and no larger than 20 MB. Please title the file "Title_Camera_Film_YourName.jpg" so that we may properly credit you if your photo is selected.  

Next month will be curated by Lucy Wainwright and the theme is "The Sacred Mundane."  From Lucy:  In April I would us to think about The Sacred Mundane
or
How the small things are really the big things

Please interpret this stanza from Blake's Auguries of Innocence into your own visual language of the enormous tiny. 

“To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.”

You can submit your photo here.
