First steps

I will start my blog with how I got into Photography. In 1961 I borrowed my Brothers Kodak Brownie Starmite Camera. The Camera used 127 film , the format is  38 x 38 mm, also called super slides. Colour pictures was not for every man, but with a father as pro photographer and  cameras all around I had seen alot of colour pictures,even though I was only 5 y.o at the time. A colourprint 9x9 cm costed NOK 6,95 back then.  My father chared NOK 4,95 for 1 hour of his time….. The camera is still in house, but 127 Film is hard to get. Only www.macodirect.de still have this film. The blue flashbuble indicates colour film, but I believe I only shot b&w. and somehow I learned how to develop and print as well.    Next camera next time.
