Shooting with Dolly was fun. She garners a lot of attention; the usual “you can still get film?” reaction is amplified to “you can still get film for THAT?”
I took her on a family vacation and shot a hike on the Zealand Trail in the White Mountains. The minimal choices for film speed, aperture, and shutter speed took a lot of the guess work out of shooting completely manually. The shutter release mechanism was a bit clumsy, but I'm hoping the shutter speeds were fast enough to mask any shaking. I'm looking forward to the results.
When I find the film.
This past week has been crazy. I over-scheduled myself to the point that I've only slept in my own bed for 2 of the last 7 nights. Jasmine's loss tipped an already busy week into chaos. Somewhere along the way I wound the film and set it aside to develop. Somewhere.
What did Cinderella say at the photo lab?
Some day my prints will come.
. . .and when they do I'll share them here.
