Any ideas?
Save for a trip into London I've not taken any pictures since Christmas.
I've not even thought about getting around to taking pictures for the shoot
in.

I used to buy 35mm camera film from Seattle Film Works that was repackaged
Technicolor movie film. The film had very low graininess and at the time I
