Last of the disposable fun for me.

First, a shot I should have taken with the first roll of  film, a focus test:

The white duck is one foot away, the rest follow every six inches.  Looks like this camera starts to focus at about 18 inches.

Next, a orange lily.

I never could get the orange back to where I wanted it.  But, remove the clutter, and the picture is improved.

And a red rose.

Again, remove the clutter, and the picture is improved.

A ground squirrel.

Enlarging helps.  (These camera need a zoom!)

Lastly, I was able to get a quick snap of Yang exercising in the pool.

  • Forgot to mention, I was using ASA 200 film. I think the orginal film (400?) was blowing out the colors too much.
