Artwork of the hipster entomologist:
Developed in just a few minutes with the free Poladroid app. I’m apparently not going to get any work done until I’ve converted my entire image collection.
***update: The fabulous Digital Cuttlefish has immortalized this post in verse:
The Hipster Entomologist
A hipster entomologist, with Polaroid in hand
Chose to catalog the insects of the nation
He was hopelessly devoted to the tool of Edwin Land
For its clarity and color saturationHe had honed his craft for decades; he had quite an expert’s eye
Every shot he took, his genius shone within it
And he didn’t need a darkroom, to develop by and by—
Thanks to Polaroid, he’d only wait a minuteHe shot bumblebees and beetles; he shot mantises and ants
He found character in portraits of a weevil
And he wouldn’t touch an SLR if given half a chance
Cos they’re square—and to a hipster, that’s just evil

Is there an option to add glasses and flannel shirts to the insects? Are those locally grown organic aphids?
Very hip.
Remember, tomorrow is World Pinhole Camera Day. Although the very question boggles my mind, “is there an app for that?”
Pshaw, butterflies are soooo mainstream.
