Summer on Film

Here are some 35mm snaps from our time this summer. I used a disposable Kodak camera with 800 ISO film. Cornfields, lighthouses, beaches and mountains - I feel that this humble roll of film captured the essence of our summer. Except - these photos look a little empty without human subjects. If our summer was a play, then these images would be the backdrops.

  3. Such lovely photos :) I'm forever taking photos without people in them, I'm never sure if I should be taking photos of people I don't know and sometimes I just like my photos without people in them :) It's nice to pretend I have the world to myself!

  4. These are just lovely, I particularly love the last one and the one of the road and the bridge are my favourites. I really love that they don't have any people in them, they feel like mystical private places where anything might happen.
