I might shoot a roll of film this month, but probably only one, so I doubt I'll post anything for 2-3 weeks. I should be the "morbidly obese maybe" ...

I've got a Diana+. Does that count? If so, can I play?

I've got a few more shots to take on the Bell & Howell. I'll probably have something to post in a few days. Ran across something interesting on the way home and I resisted the temptation to get out the digital.

Well, I'm a bit disappointed with myself. I had a film in to be processed, but for reasons I cannot yet fathom, only 2 on the whole roll came out. Then when I went to scan them, the scanner is somehow not working. Pity the lab won't scan them onto a cd, but that service is not available. Still got a few weeks I suppose to get things moving again.

Sorry to hear about this, Sarah. These are the trials of film, I guess. I do hope you'll give it another stab though. When everything works out, film is SO much more rewarding than digital. For me, anyway.

I'm late to the party, but here. Took a few days to shoot the roll I had in the Goodwill special. I picked it up this evening and only the last 4 frames came out. Everything else was black.


I'm meeting a film photography group from Flickr in Dallas tomorrow morning, so I plan on shooting some more, but I'll try the flying sub binocular camera this time. I couldn't get anything into the backwards camera, not even backwards.

I apologize lol, I didn't really knew what Holga/Lomo meant when I posted these and from the pictures posted I felt like they'd fit in, but after googling it I realize they completely don't fit in here or meet this side challenge.

Sorry, I'm trying to get my scanner back on track. Will play with it today.

Just picked up three rolls today. Now to start scanning...

To answer a couple of questions I've had on different photos. I develop my own 127 film (and 120 and 35mm) but I'm only doing B&W. When I come to try some colour it'll be 120 & 35mm and I'll get them developed professionally. If I can find the ingredients I'm going to have a go at developing with coffee.

As for scanning them, I don't have a film scanner so I put the negatives between two sheets of glass and photograph them using my dSLR. The problems with this are getting an evenly lit background and moire patterns where the negatives touch the glass.

Today's picture from the Brownie 127:
