Forgotten Film...

Way back in April 2010 we went on a long weekend away with our parents (both sets, they get on, its awesome) and on the way back, we stopped at Castle Howard which I blogged about at the time. However I completely forgot that as well as taking my fuji instax mini, we also took my Dad's Olympus OM-10 and we never finished the roll... and then, we completely forgot that it was still in the camera. For well over a year... disaster.

However, I accidently finished it over the weekend (playing with the camera, like you do) and here are the photos from that lovely day at Castle Howard... though neither Thomas or I can actually remember who took the photos.

{I remember taking the photo on the right, how beautiful is the light! Shame we still haven't figured out the shutter speeds lol}

Aren't the daffodils just amazing? I forgot how many that there were.

I always find the OM-10 quite intimidating compared to my little plastic cameras as there are so many settings but I always love the results from it. Perhaps we should use it more.

i really like these photos, they are so bright! and that peacock! wow!
i have a similar old nikkormat from my granddad... i'm quite fond of it.. and there is an old mysterious film left in it! exciting!
do you use this olympus without the special batteries for it? if so, is it fine? i sure feel intimidated as well by it!

I'm loving that it's fall, but the daffodil photos have me dreaming of spring now!

I just happened across your blog through the recommended sites in Google Reader and had myself a little moment: this is about the third time Castle Howard has popped up randomly in less than a week. I was discussing it once with someone about Brideshead Revisited being filmed there, then my aunt came back from England with a souvenir book, and now your post. Really quite bizarre.

Isn't forgotten film the best? I've got a couple of rolls waiting to be developed that I just keep forgetting to do. No idea what's on them.

These photos are lovely. The daffodils are lovely!

These are beautiful Rhianne. I have an Olympus OM-10 too (which also belonged to my Dad!). I don't use it much because mine eats up the batteries way too fast, but I've always loved the pictures it takes. I know what you mean about it being more "intimidating". It's like a proper camera compared to the light toycams we play with.
