Lost film All my pictures have been developed, including 49 rolls of slide film and 8 rolls of print film. I have filed the slides into three 3" thick binders, but haven't cut the negatives yet. However, I am missing the roll with the last 20 pictures I captured of Europe. I have one idea of what happened to it. My last day in Kraków, I toured the church in the town square. It had a very spectacular interior. You could video tape but not take still pictures inside. I watched as several tourists whipped out point and shoot cameras and took pictures with the flash. I noticed that none of them were harassed or struck by lightning. Feeling rebellious, I snapped a couple frames in ambient light and then departed. I was in a bad and disobient mood that day because when I was leaving
the hotel, I got on the street car that normally took me up to the
main station. About midway, the conductor made an annoucement in
Polish and then kept going. Next think I know, I am in the very
ghetto outskirts of Kraków. Eventually, I get off and get
on the tram riding back to the city. Again, the conductor makes
an annoucement at one point. I get off at the next stop and then
walk the last mile to the train station. I dump my stuff in the
locker for an hour so I can do some final shooting of the city--including
the church. Wow what a story, maybe you should write a book,
it sure has been good |
