Photo taken Sept 23, 2010
ISO 800
Kodak Power Flash Single Use Camera

I started using digital cameras about ten years ago. Many years before that
I took photos using range finder and SLR film cameras. I was amazed at what
I forgot about film cameras after taking these pictures using a disposable
camera. This picture of the egret flying would have been much better if I
had remembered that, with film cameras, you have to advance the film after
each shot. The egret took off and flew pretty close to me. I pressed the
shutter button and nothing happen. Forgot to wind the film. By the time I
quickly turned the advance dial, it was further away. Film requires a
completely different skill set. You have to know the camera and it's
capabilities and you have to wait many hours or days to see the results.
If the result is not to your liking, there is no way to take another shot.
Film is a real photo challenge. I'll try it again sometime but for now I'm
staying with digital.
