Polaroid instant photos give a nostalgic feel to pictures, but these images were once limited by color negation and blurry qualities. Polaroids also never provided negatives. Without a negative, enlargements or copies of Polaroid pictures became nearly impossible. With photo editing software, however, photographers and artists digitize the Polaroids and reveal color correction and sharpness in the images. Older Polaroids still do not have the same image quality associated with traditional film due to resolution, but improvements still allow for a better picture. You can use any variety of photo editing software to improve Polaroids, from the high-end industrial standard Adobe Photoshop to the consumer-level Photoshop Elements, or freeware packages such as Gimp or Picasa.
