My first camera



Not many used small digital cameras some years ago so many asked me then about my photos and my digital camera.



I used a very cheap camera that anyone could have bought on an internet shop. It does not have LCD TV on the back whatever.


So I adapted. I used a cotton bud and an elastic band to help my aim (reason why people were curious).


The case where I keep the camera has two holes at the bottom. I kept loosing the elastic band and the cotton bud. Now I use blue tac to keep it fixed...and still I keep losing the cotton buds...


With all these cotton bud fights or not, since I use this small prop the ratio of defective-photos passed from a 30% to just 3%


Once I forgot the switch in the position for "flowers"


That day I took 62 photos and two short videos.

All foggy! It included many of the photos in that my walk around the Minerva II, the biggest 'difused/foggy' ship that ever visited London.


WHAT A DAY RUNNING AROUND THE SHIP CROSSING THE RIVER UNDER AND OVER! BUT IT WAS AN INCREDIBLE DAY!



Sometimes I had to fight to load the photos and now after 5 years it stopped doing the job but the results, as you can see, are satisfactory. With little money you can go far.
