I had an Instamatic as a kid. I have an album with photos taken
with that Kodak. I still have that camera. Also the Hawkeye Instamatic
that I think my sister got from sending in proof of purchases from Sugar
Smacks cereal boxes (if memory serves me right.) I never shot slides. It
was always print film. I assume I paid for all this out of my allowance,
though my father did use to have a love of photography. This was before the
family came along...
I recently pulled out the 126 shots taken of my first trip to the
Copan Ruins in Honduras. This site was the one that started my love of
archaeology and ruins. It is interesting to see how the site has changed
over the years and also how well the photos came out - I even shot into the
sun on a couple of them. How I wish I had taken more photos back then. I
have been to Macchu Pichu - it was recently and I was shooting 35mm at that
point. Lovely place, definitely worth spending the night there.
