I think I said you looked more 'swarthy' in the photo. Either way, I hope you didn't drop a stitch!!

Fantastic and funny pictures in this thread, here is my contribution which is also my avatar: a semi-accidental self portrait while testing my Cambo Model 40 for the first time, with FP-3000B.

I'm surprised I've been kept alive in this group! I joined in May 2008.. total 3 posts. I guess one a year is keeping active enough. I see a few names I know elsewhere on the interwebs. "Hi" to those!

Here's a couple, one in BW at Sand Dunes Provincial Park in Ontario fooling around. The colour shot is environmental… graffiti shooting.

Hi Phil & Ed! Those knees are what keep me running... be kind ;D

I should drop by more frequently and I'll make the effort. It should be fun.

New Member to Filmwasters, Hi Phil and Ed!

this is my reflective hobby and not, by any means a profession, yet.
It is one I have only recently rediscovered as a passion in the last two years. I have slowly revealed to myself that, through using film and slowing down and making deliberate decisions, and coincidental mistakes that I can learn from, as a thought process and method for self discovery; is more valuable and meaningful to me than the digital imagery process. I still use digital but the film process simply enhances value over quantity in my life.

I am Honored to be among such great wasters of film. thanks and greetings! Scott Aka

Still, I miss the old Expos vs Jays days...

(For those not into Canadiana, The Blue Jays are a baseball team from Toronto. The expos were from Montreal. There used to be real competition between both cities. But the Montreal team got sold to Washington DC... And now, rappers and black kids wear Expos caps to identify themselves to the city but have no idea we ever had a baseball team...)

I liked the concept, but I didn't think the pics did it justice. Good to see you putting it to use.

What a wonderful photo!!

This-is-damion · « **Reply #234 on:** May 20, 2012, 03:43:28 PM »

I'd love to say its a bad picture of me, but no...that just how I look. In my defence I was working in London the following day and as such was lugging a bag around that had my suit, shoes on a boiling hot day. fun day though!

Ed Wenn · « **Reply #235 on:** May 23, 2012, 10:13:02 AM »

D, if I wasn't in the picture right next to you, I dare say you'd look better. It's all about context and relativity. Crop it and you'll see what I mean.

Diane: Yes, it's a great photo. Nigel has a great eye and is ably abetted by that fantastic Holga of his. Probably the best Holga lens I've ever seen. I didn't think they made them this badly anymore. After about 2007 it seemed they upped their production techniques and started producing a relaible product....which is good and bad

The result was that I got bored of all Holga photos looking the same unlike Dianas and clones where pretty much every camera lens produces different results (which is why we all have at least 3

)....until Nigel's came along and brought back memories of older Holgas. Fantastic.

Okay, as promised, here's the photo of me in that 57 Chevy that I was drooling over this last weekend.
Shame it wasn't color, but oh well!

That guy cruises around town, so maybe I can catch him again and have color next time.
Sorry about the ratty scan, I think it's dying...again!

Taken with a mint green Imperial Savoy camera with film almost as old as the camera. I had a couple of rolls of Rexall Drug Store b/w film from 1963, and I think the camera was made around 1961, so it was a match made in Heaven! Might be a bit grainy, tho'.

Absolutely!

And oh, the Rexall! I bought many a box of jawbreakers there. And Lemonheads.

Barely too young to have bought film there, though. Maybe a roll of 110 for a toy camera that would now be worth a Lomo mint.

I do have fond visual memories of the Fotomat huts in every grocery and drug store parking lot. If I still lived in the contiguous 48 states I'd probably go Fotomat hut hunting as a photo series.

Hi folks, I'm just a lurker here but thought I would introduce myself in case I decide to post later. I've been in Tokyo since 2007 (before that I lived in NYC for 9 years and before that Kansas City), have various cameras and have a darkroom-on-wheels that I wheel out when the need arises. Not all that skilled at photography but I do what I can.
