Found Photographs – Paris and Jerusalem

One of the things I love to look for at flea markets is old photographs. They’re not always good, and not always cheap, but I love to hunt for unusual photos from other time periods. Especially when on the back names, dates, and locations are still readable. Here are some of my favorites from flea markets in Paris and Jerusalem:

Panorama – Wide Lens

Excellent, so i’ve managed to transfer all of the website from Free (which was a free but unreliable host) to GoDaddy, which is reasonably priced and stable.

To celebrate here are some of the pictures I’ve been taking over the past few weeks with my new camera, a cheap plastic Panoramic camera. I got it for 5 bucks at a flea market, and the film I’ve been using with it were 50 cents each.

Naturally some of the colors aren’t as nifty as they could have been, but I’m happy to test the camera before taking it on holiday during the summer (Middle East).

Lomography Fisheye – Portraits I Like

I was trying to post a small sample of my Lomography Fisheye pictures here to see if I could get the WordPress Flickr plugin to work…I had trouble using the damn thing (Photos don’t load, “no photos found” error message, etc.), so I’m going to do it manually using the “All sizes” function in Flickr.
