Default 70 year old film developed

Hi All.

Just came across a story on the BBC

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-54175441

about a 70 year old film finally developed.

It might be of interest to a member or two

Ian

Default Julier Pass

I have been over the Julier Pass but not when it was like this. The Hotel is still there and a call in point for motorcyclists

Amazing. The dog is thinking: I hope I still look this good when they find this 70 years old pic of me in my tourist days

Yes, Paul, it may be that a dash between old and film developed might be missing.

If anyone ever get the chance to read a book called Eats, Shoots and Leaves then it is worth doing so. It begins with the tale of the homicidal panda and the fatal comma.

I found it instructive and amusing

Mike

One of the reasons I prefer B&W film. For the most part it's tough stuff.
