Positives

Positives was a small photography project from Matthew Howell in 2014.

Each week, a photograph taken with a Polaroid SX-70, on Impossible Project film, scanned in a tiny studio apartment, and shared in the Positives email newsletter.

Most of these were taken in New York City, but a handful were taken in Thailand, Philadelphia, or other places that I happened to be carrying the camera that year.

There were 45 photos published in 2014, which are all collected below along with a few unpublished images that were taken for the same project.
