disappointed....
I am very disappointed today. I went to develop the photos i took. I finally finish taking 24 photos.. Well, that's wad i thought cuz the film rewind itself after 24 shots. After picking up my photos from the shop, i sat on the bench to look at photos. My goodness, my excited face changed straight away to a serious, disappointed one.. First of all, the colours were dull...like a lack of contrast. Dark purple flowers turned violet. Secondly, ONLY 11 PICTURES WERE DEVELOPED!!! I thought how come 24 photos so little niarh, then i went to count one by one, and found out only 11 niarh!!! there was one photo that was all black, mayb cause it was the end of the film. BUT WHERE HAVE THE OTHER 13 gone too???? i went to check the film negative and saw BIG blank gaps in btwn photos. Thirdly, a few of the photos were overexposed by the sunlight. Looking through the viewfinder, the image seemed fine. But after developing it, i was shocked to find sooo much light in the photo. disappointment followed by more diappoinments... sigh... Luckily it only cost me $6.50 to develop these photos rather than the $15 i asked earlier. If i paid $15 and these came out, i'll seriously go mad. 2 more rolls of film. Should i continue??? Photography is not cheap, especially when u're living alone, and spending money u earned on daily expenses as well, rather than using ur parent's money. i really admire photographers from the old days, when they were using film instead of digital. There's no LCD to look back at the photos u've taken, and there's no other fancy settings. So, i reckon it's easier to master digital photography rather than film photography. back to the question... should i continue????
hhhmm.....i guess so.... =\ can't let one roll of film pull be back right???
