Foolish gibberish

about

I am a Children’s Librarian living in the Portland, Oregon area. When I am not Children’s Librianing I like to play with cameras and film. I also like playing the ukulele, knitting, sketching, and hiking.

Fun with expired film

January 15, 2012

I have 4 rolls of very expired film in my old camera bag. By very expired I mean it is older than my marriage which will be 15 this June. I bought it at Costco years and years and years ago. It is 400 ASA, color. I finally bought batteries for my old Pentax P30 and decided to take it out for a spin with the 50mm lens that I have for it. I took most of these shots in Portland at Pittock Mansion last weekend. A couple of them I took this morning (the ones of the snowy trees). I love the faded, retro look.
