film... at last

i lucked out this evening at the Migros and actually found b&w Ilford film. i was in shock, because the last time here all i could find was color Kodak film. everything here has gone digital; film is rare, and usually very expensive. i couldnt believe a double pack of ilford 125 [36 exposures] was only 11.40 CHF. that's pretty cheap. i might need to go buy it all!

i also got some rechargeable batteries and charger for the mini keychain Vision Quest digi cam, which gobbles batteries to the tune of one battery for about 15 little snapshots; if the battery goes, the fotos go. very stupid. i made some shots w/it from the inside car, rain pouring down, when coming home from the Migros this evening. they came out blurry w/reflections, but cool.

a hill, the train tracks, and in the distance some of the town, a weird ball thing, electric wires, mountains, reflections

i brought my small casio exlim digital to blog with... but for some weird reason it's battery is also going down at an abnormally rapid pace. possible the change in power? below: a shot taken of me using the casio [shot by jacqueline] of me with my new 2nd hand shop Kowa slr [testing it out], old polaroid land 210 [a polaroid 'print' drying in hand-and the film back in the other] and [unseen] 2 plastic toy cams in my pants pockets... by the Aare, in Buren- a few days ago.
