The recently released #21345 LEGO Ideas Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera faithfully captures the look of the classic Polaroid One Step Camera. However, as it is a LEGO set, it can’t really take actual photos. But what if it could?
The LEGO Ideas team is challenging LEGO fans to create photos that might have been taken with a LEGO Polaroid Camera. They are looking for brick-built scenes that feature the iconic Polaroid film frame showing off special scenes and memories or creative wonders that are works of art.
If you would like to participate in this contest, your submission should include a brick-built Polaroid frame in white bricks, as shown in the image below. The scene can be larger than the frame itself as long as the frame is clear and obvious. Small portions of the frame can be covered. Your submission can be either 2D or 3D, but it should not contain any IP references other than Polaroid.
Create and submit your entry before February 8th, 2024, at 6:00 a.m. EST. (The LEGO Ideas team recommends submitting your entry 2-3 days before the deadline of the event they have to return it to you for changes. If your entry is submitted before the intake closing date but is sent back to you for changes, you will have until February 9th, 2024 at 6:00 a.m. EST. to resubmit. Resubmissions after this will not be accepted.) You can submit your entry at the LEGO IDEAS PICTURE PERFECT MEMORIES CONTEST PAGE

This is a good one. Small and creative. I might give it a shot.
I like the kitty and the sunset in the rain forest. Cool contest.
I think the judges are going to have a hard time selecting the winners.
Wow. I just noticed that the light house is one of the prizes. Dang. I must enter then.
