It Was a Time

A couple of weeks ago I picked up a roll of film that had been sitting in my Pentax for months before I finally got around to developing it. I grabbed it from Hunts where they explained that the company that processed my E9 film wasn't able to scan the frames onto CD so I had to wait until today to scan the negatives myself. I have to say, it was like Christmas come early when I saw not just these fantastic shots of Nubble Light in Maine, but also a few shots of Worcester State Hospital, now long gone. So enjoy!

Consistent with my typical moments of stupidity, it was either too cold for my film camera the day I shot this, or it could have been the hot tea I spilled on the camera...or I could have just loaded the film wrong. But this frame, despite being fuzzy and not quite what I originally had in mind, really came out great. The edges have an odd mist from the angle of the film when it fed through the camera and it looks like something I could possibly have found on the floor in the theater.
