Alright. Last time I wrote, I promised to give a little insight into my inability to actually take proper photographs with my Polaroid Colorpack II vintage camera. Well, I realized I didn’t feel ready to humiliate myself to that extent just yet. So instead of four minimalistic Thanksgiving Polaroid flubs, I’ve decided the image mistakes you really ought to see at year’s end are these Photoshop glitches I keep running into lately. I have found lots of inspiration in glitch art since the time I came across Year of the Glitch (very likely through Tumblr Radar, though I no longer remember for certain). For all the frustrations the machines in our lives cause us, how reassuring to catch a glimpse into that ominous ghost in the machine. Enjoy!

Hope you all had a serene and special Thanksgiving! I took my thrifted Polaroid Land camera out for its first test run and shot four improper exposures of the Thanksgiving Day festivities. I will share those next! And thanks for all your support for the site so far!

Vroom! A motorcyclist rides one of many green motorcycles down the Blue Ridge Parkway on October 14, 2012.

With just a split-second to get the shot, we photographers aren’t always this lucky.
