I decided to pull out my dad's old camera for a bit of photo "phun", if you will. I've been in possession of this camera for awhile but never felt like I owned it. My Chicago move prompted me to explore and what better to explore with than an awesome hand-me-down camera and a grand sense of adventure. somewhere along the way I got over zealous. The excitement of new places and the ever growing desire to create "pretty moments" caused me to devour 3 rolls of 35mm film. Count them 3! I then came down from my photo-phile high and wondered what I had done. As my best friend so bluntly yet astutely asked, "shouldn't you have started with one roll to see how it turns out?" Well, here is how it turned out. Those 3 epic rolls of film produced a whopping 5 decent pictures. Here they are...
Although my camera is obviously in need of a helping hand, my spirit is not broken. Bruised as my ego may be, I would love Chicago to lend me its character and beauty again in the future.
