You got too many cameras.
I don't have too many cameras, I have too little space.

Fresh snow in Olympics.... My dad took these with the KX I gave to him last year. I don't think he was completely happy with the results of the roll, but I figure that's par for the course when you've not shot film on a manual camera for over 30 years and using a new-to-you emulsion. I hope he shoots some more because I thought these were fantastic and created this diptych with them.

I like that one a lot - the composition, the urban decay, the colours and the motorcycle rider all work well.

That is NOT a "motorcycle rider"! (he said indignantly)

So, a film story for today. I went for a walk this afternoon with my GM1, and my Canon Prima (Superia 200) down by the Credit River, which is close to me. I had half a roll in there for several months.

The snow we had last week (!) has melted, and the river is coming down. At this time of the year, there is a real pause, where the green hasn't come in, and the dominant colour is yellow/brown.
I had taken a couple of shots, then put my film camera into a drop loader bag that has a holster-style top. I was walking down near the river, then had to sidle past some trees near the water. As I did, I felt a tug, and turned to see my film camera floating (fortunately, plastic...) in the river - the lanyard had grabbed the branches, flipped the camera out of my pocket, and into the water.

Needless to say, not too happy, as this particular cam has seen a lot of action and travel (over the last 22 years). I was able to finish the roll and held it lengthwise to minimise further water entry. So, I've just disassembled and cleaned it, and I may have gotten lucky - everything seems to work, and have put it into silica gel.

So, moral of the story is to hang the lanyard around one's neck, or close the holster!
