FRAMES 13-16 – “THE WHOLE ROLL“

Scheduled post! First day in Europe! Right now I’m most likely taking a picture of something awesomely 60s-looking in London, like a red telephone booth or Rolls Royce or something… Or, getting off the plane hungry and semi- (very semi) jetlagged?
FRAMES 9-12 – “THE WHOLE ROLL“
(comments are closed on these “The Whole Roll” posts until the last one, so save up your nice fuzzy compliments!)
Here ye, kind folk! My family is heading to Europe tomorrow for my dad’s solo tour in Spain (+ London). Aside from New Zealand, this will be my first time out of the good ol’ continent of North America, so QUITE EXCITED, I AM DON’TCHA’KNOW EH.
Since I never fully “covered” my 8th grade NYDC trip from last May, I thought it’d be a cool idea to post two photos [update] from back then (scheduled, of course) per day while I’m off adventuring foreign land (and hopefully making more trip photos I can share later, too). The pictures will come from just one roll of film I took with a disposable camera, all in D.C. – used it up before we got to NYC, semi-unfortunately – for a total 26 exposures. A little backstory of the roll:
During one of our days at the capital, our group stopped at a little souvenir shop to.. get some souvenirs. There, I bought one of those off-brand crappy generic disposable cameras. (Or at least that’s what I thought it was..) Normally when I use disposable cameras I also like to tear off the packaging it’s fitted with, so the first thing I did after forking over FIVE WHOLE BONES for the things was rip that sort of cardboard suit off.
Upon removing that from this supposedly bad-in-a-good-way camera, I see not a plain black piece of plastic, but a FUJIFILM CAMERA, COMPLETE WITH ‘RETURN TO WALMART FOR QUALITY PHOTOPROCESSING’ STICKER. Wait, there’s more: The place where the little AA battery for the flash is put was knocked out, and instead there was an actual generic no-name battery, I’m assuming because they took the Rayovac one or whatever Fuji puts in their cameras and replaced it with cheap ones (like, for a profit, duh).
I was kind of angry, especially because I paid a ridiculous tourist price for that piece of not-crappy-enough-crap, but I think the pictures turned out just as weird, or at least almost as weird as I hoped. Doh!
Oh, in case you missed it: Part 1 of the NYDC recapping.
COMPONENT DOS, FRAMES 1-4 – “THE WHOLE ROLL”
Turned out okay, eh (eh eh eh eh Canada)? See you in um.. twelve days!
update: “Two photos per day” changed to four every other day, because I think two would be a teeny bit sparse. Carry on.
Postscript: I think after returning from this trip (and consequently a week-and-a-half without internet) I plan on taking a fresh look at this new redesign and making a few tweaks. Nothing huge, but some minor improvements. So glad everybody seems to be liking it!!
