4 Rolls of film and heaps of mistakes

Got 4 rolls developed recently. One from the canon 1N shows that I was learning the camera. Most are out of ficus until I found the custom menu system and changed the button that uses the auto focus.

The Canon F-1 film shows where I accidentally opened the back, forgetting that I had film in the camera. Oops but if I had not done this, the roll would have turned out ok.

The last roll was included in a camera I got from Valentine NSW. For some reason it's all blue... But I can see it is the great Ocean Road.

Was a druey's solstice party, and was shooting film. I had the perfect model she was gorgeous. I shot a lot of pics when I realised I had rewound the film as some point and no photos were taken. Do I need time off?? Apparently, yes.

Damn it all? These would have been wonderful. ARRGHHH.

it continues to rain,..

sigh... and with the lead up to the non optional retail season, I have had even less time than usual to get out.

Dropped off some films at the local film place who informed us that they are shutting up shop. NOOOOO my $5 a roll place closing and becoming a digital processing place is beyond horrible. Time to get my c-41 kit out.. FFS. I will not pay $15 a roll and 2hrs travel for c-41. I just can't.

River Island trip was mostly digital but finished a roll on the Canon 1N.

Need time to upload some rolls. Ugh. can it please be January already??

Damned weather gods

Its been raining almost constantly. My only day of f on a very long time and it is pouring!!

Been hoarding.. of course.

I did a swap with Kevin in Washington in the USA, and he send me 10 rolls of 400TX which was very exciting for me. I am still certain I got the better deal. We then did a swap for Soap and two rolls of 127 and he kindly had a gift for me, a power winder for my A-1. Aw :-) He also send me some CN440BW which I needed for a project (Except the damned weather wont let me)

Yay for good friends. I need to find a nice Xmas present even though he wont get it in time. :-( I have a few ideas.

My F/1.8 fell apart. Age I think and it was not made as well as the FD lens
50MM F/1.8 fell apart.

My social life is non existant, so without online friends, I would be very lonely indeed. SO a huge thank you to everyone I have "met" recently. I work far too hard and too many hours to keep up lots of real life social interaction.

My IG anniversary camera arrived in location one. :-)
