Being who I am, I decided to try to photograph it with a Lomo Instax Wide Glass camera. I hadn't realized how many objects would me removed from the parade route for public safety: I had hoped to use bus shelter glass and similar objects to brace my mini-tripod, but they were missing. I also learned that the bollards at the end of Market Street are WOBBLY, which... did NOT help me!
I wasted about ten frames on images with the camera braced against unstable objects, but I got a few successes. Plus: light painting using the laser array is GREAT! Too much for the film to manage, so it solarizes in a fun way.
Yaaay, lasers!
