So recently I picked up a couple of Brownie Hawkeye's with a bag load of old Kodachrome 100 ASA Color film, manufactured in 1984. (I love Kodak and for anyone who has never shot with film and only worked with digital, you are truly living in a deprived world.) The film is long expired, but I thought "why not?" Two cameras, the flash kits, a bunch of bulbs, and a bag of film for $20. Feeds my habit. I've never shot on film this expired - I know you can, but I've just never done it, and the results were surprising. - I hope you enjoy these.

I'm still figuring out how close I can put the camera to my subject. I got a few inches too close on the flower.
But check out how the film "halos" around the petals.

I love the saturation in the marsh shot below. The shadows really worked out well.

It seems that the film is so old that the "Kodachrome" and slide number that is on the paper backing has bled onto some of the negatives.
