[Photography] The Impossible Smartphone Printer

If you ever wanted to own a Polaroid camera or just wanted to print your photos from your iPhone, The Impossible Instant Lab is something worth checking out. Paired with an accompanying app, you are able to take your digital iPhone photos and turn them into analog instant photos with a lo-fi look. You simply choose your photo, open up the app, and place your iPhone on the cradle; the image is then exposed on the film, resulting in a printed Polaroid for you. Check out the video below to see how it works and the photos it produces, for more check out The Impossible Project.

IG Weekly: Chicagojams

It seems like everybody is on their phone scrolling through photos deciding which ones to post on Instagram. It's so easy to do, whether you're a photographer or not; just point, shoot, choose a filter, then post whatever you created. From the funny duck face selfies to breathtaking landscapes to gritty city streets, some use it as visual journal giving glimpses of their lives. Others have taken it to another level creating works of art. All of us at Ruby Hornet are fans of the social media platform and decided to do a weekly series of highlighting people whose Instagrams we feel are cool. Let us know in the comments section if you'd like to be featured, or let us know about some other cool Instagrams. Be sure to follow the Ruby Hornet Instagram, too.

This week's featured Instagram comes from Chicagojams. This Instagrammer takes you along as he wanders the streets of Chicago from Downtown to its many different neighborhoods.
