Ohhh, you're my best friend...

{Post title sung in Queen fashion is required...}

**Warning there will be a number of these posts because... well my friends are amazing!! Both my life friends and my blog friends - and I couldn't be more grateful. **

First up - a much waited for post dedicated to my lovely K...

Over the August bank holiday, K gave me a box for my birthday present and inside was lots of cameras!! 6 cameras to be precise - 2 polaroids, a box brownie(!!!), 2 35mm cameras... and the final camera was K and her sisters old Action Tracker (now named action sampler on Lomography) from when they were little... how amazing is that?!

Note: there are photos of me opening the box but they are still being edited...
its on here now G - you have to send them to me, haha!

How did K know that I've been looking at multi lens cameras for a while now?!
Of course I immediately put a film in it and here are some of my favourite photos from the bbq that my Mum has pretty much every year... I may have used most of the film within the space of a couple of hours, oops!

Action Harry!

Peek a boo!

Catch!

Twirl!

Turn and... smile!

Thanks K!!
(and hi to P!)

I love my friends :)
(and cameras...)

Happy weekend!!

New film crush...

Honestly, I've never been too bothered about the film that I used in my cameras before, as long as it worked and the colours looked bright, I was happy. However, lately after looking on Lomography and seeing their range of films, I've been excited about the possibilities that different films can have.

And then... two photoswappers used redscale film in the swap and now... I'm completely in love!

I can not wait to try this film out myself. I think it might just be perfect to take to Poland!
p.s. my birthday giveaway ends tomorrow! Go enter, its amazing!
