Blastin'

Above is the X-Treme Pix, a camera that is said to be a Blaster hiding behind a differently colored body. The original Nickelodeon Photoblaster has been discontinued years ago. The last batches came out in 1999. This fun camera creates four separate images off a single frame (yes, four clicks).

Today, I got my first Blaster roll, a May 2006 expired Fuji Superia 400, back.

I am one happy film shooter.

The Buck Stops Here

I was supposed to post about some "thing" here but it seemed totally inapproriate with the current situation of my right "foot". That original post will come out when I get better. Those who love seeing me get in trouble with the wifey better keep watching this space. Nope, nothing to do with maxing out a Citibank credit card or emptying a bank account. The wifey, though, might say "close enough".

I Stand Alone

Film cameras have crossed my mind a few times since I picked up "snapping pictures" as a hobby. There are a couple of models that I think would suit me. I tried acquiring one but it went beyond my hobby fund. Also holding me back is the cost of films and film processing. Plus, I honestly think my "toidejikames" are better than any toy film cameras out there. A free camera would go a long way in making me think otherwise. Just in time, Ms. Jennifer Young of i art u is giving away a Holga TLR and some other yummy goodies from Fourcornersdark.

Hop on over to i art u. Read the archives as well. Very good read. If you end up winning the Holga, send it over to me. You will be a better person for it. Trust me.
