My first ever roll. A test roll. In the rolls of film Emma had generously gifted me was a roll that inside it's container held FujiFilm 400, a very common 35mm film, but on it's container was branded with the logo and name of Brook's Pharmacy (a chain of New England Pharmacies that closed down in 2007). It was very clear this roll was probably long expired, most film only has a shelf life of 2-3 years, and sometimes although it can feel like I just graduated high school yesterday, even if yesterday was my high school graduation, that would still put this film at at least 10 years old. We decided this roll would probably be the best to just see if the camera did indeed work as the seller said it did, since the film probably didn't work as Brook's Pharmacy once intended it to.

Ribbon'd photo: I didn't realize how much of an omen that squirrel was. For however much I absolutely love my camera, it's one major flaw is that even if I use the red-eye correction feature, any night time photo of an animal still comes out looking like there’s evil in their hearts. Although it is fun capturing the red eye flights of birds, and sometimes I feel odd complaining because I'll go out of my way to capture the wall of red eyes staring at me from the back end of bumper to bumper traffic.
