My computer and I have been at odds lately, and I originally didn’t plan on participating in this challenge because I had to update the drivers on my scanner. However, I was going through a box of junk yesterday, and found a disposable camera that had 6 shots left on it. I flipped it over, and the expiration date on the bottom was December, 2002. I couldn’t for the life of me remember what might have been on this camera, and what would they look like 5 years after the film expired? I shot off the last 6 shots in order to solve the mystery, and ran the camera down to Ritz last night.Well, the mystery was solved…sort of. There were shots of a Tiger’s baseball game from either 2001 or 2002. All I remember about the game is the Tigers lost…which wasn’t unusual back in 2001 or 2002. Of the 20 shots that were originally on the camera, only 8 came out, and most of them looked like this! Even more of them were a grainy pink with odd shapes and colors .
As for the ones I took yesterday, well they were pretty grainy too. Here are the 4 best.
Life is a Highway Had one shot left before I got to Ritz!
Pain at the Pump Okay, between this and the baseball game, it’s obvious that disposables aren’t good for telephoto shots!
Pyramid of Hats Hey, I was trying to use up the film…
And most importantly, the line-up of toys I appreciate more than ever!
