Project 52 Week 17 - Film

Project 52 - Film

This week's theme, yes I said this week's - I am finally on time again is film or film-like. I wonder if the children growing up even know what film for a camera is. Can you even buy a camera that uses film anymore and how easy is it to get your film developed.

Since the coming of digital cameras, it is harder and harder to buy film cameras and probably just as hard to get them developed. The days where you shoot rolls and rolls of film to make sure you get that one great picture are long gone. Now you can just delete the pictures that you don't like as you are taking them. Also the days of taking your film in, waiting at least a couple of days, if not a week depending on where you went is a thing of the past. Do you even develop you pictures anymore? I so very seldom do. I now share them through multi media.

When thinking of this theme I remembered my SLR camera and also my video camera, both take film. I had thought that I had a roll of film lying around the house, but I must have gotten rid of it.

Here is my interpretation of film:

It does make me sad to think that these days are over, but like everything technology advances.

What do you think will be the next thing we will see in photography?

Take a look at all the other interpretation of Film..

Project 52 - Old - Week 16

These week's theme is:

Project 52 ~ OLD

The first thing that I thought of when I heard of this week's theme was ME! I thought of when I was getting married and the theme something new, something old, something blue. When I got to the something old I thought that is easy ~ it's me. But I didn't think you would like another picture of me :)...

So this is what I decided to go with....

The doily that the plates are on was made by my great grandmother. My great aunt gave it to me as a wedding present as she knew that I would cherish something this precious. I never knew my great grandmother but I remember my mom telling me stories about her. This doily has a special place on my piano.

The dishes were given by a dear neighbor that lived kitty-corner to us as we were growing up. She was "grandma" Jones to us even though she had many grandchildren of her own. She gave me these plate or TV trays as she called them to me when I graduated from high school. She told me that she had bought them when her eldest daughter was out of school which must be at least 50 years ago. Grandma Jones passed away a few years after I graduated but I have these dishes to remember her by.

Project 52- Colourful Week 15

I am still a week behind but hopefully this week I will catch up.

Last week's theme was

Project 52 - Colourful

When I first heard the theme for last week's project 52 my mind went to Africa. Colourful is the best way to describe their material and clothes. I love all the colours that they use.

Bright, Bold and Beautiful.

They aren't afraid to wear colour.

different material that I have

One more picture. As you can tell this picture wasn't taken by me but by a friend of my husband's friend with my camera. The dress I am wearing was made by the material that my mother and father in law gave me as a wedding gift.

Head over to these other blogs to see what their interpretation of colourful is:

Project 52 - Sun - week 14

I am so far behind on this project.

I was doing ok and only about a day or two behind but now I am over a week.

So will be doing two weeks, back to back or very close together.

Week 14 was...

Project 52 - Sun

I am wondering if I am more behind as the sun hasn't been out these last few weeks. We get a glimpse here and there but not enough to say that it is out. I had to dig into my archives for this picture. I took this picture at Easter time.
