One of my friends in Falmouth gave me this camera and a pack of out of date film - in exchange for a picture I drew of a scene in Watchmen. I call it 'cat cam'. It meows. I just got my first film developed. I still take pictures like I did 10 years ago. ie. out of focus and badly framed. But there are a few interesting results anyway.
As my scanner is in Falmouth, I've had to photograph the photos! When I return I will scan the actual photos.
Each of these photos are blurry but I like the colours in them. Also on the first two, the rain drops on the window (I took these photographs through my flat window) seem to be in focus while the main image isn't. Photo one and three are of the same location but a different boat in the dry dock!
I love how the colours have come out in this photograph. It sort of reminds me of how old photographs look today, ones from the 80s or 90s. The blue sky is beautiful. But yes, that is a baby hanging upside down in front of my balcony door. Some friends of mine decided it'd be fun to bungee jump it off the balcony above and left it hanging at my window. Pretty nice photograph anyway!
The only photograph which was perfectly in focus! My bamboo plant.
I've got 9 more out of date films, plus 3 or 4 other films, so the cat cam will get much more use in future. Unfortunately, although the camera and films were free, it costs £4.95 to develop a film each time. Especially disappointing when there are only a few decent photographs.
