Civic duties done. Think I’ll go for a walk and finish off this roll of film I’ve been trying to finish for a month.

That’s not even my weirdest one. I have an appropriately themed 126 camera should I ever get the things needed to shoot it.

When you’re sitting on Main Street, you don’t really realize how far behind the castle the fireworks for Happily Ever After are. When you watch from behind the castle, you find out.

I think thats one of the reasons I've been more into shoot film in general. I don't normally get into the idea of the "film look", but the fact I can hold it makes it special.

It’s not as sharp as 35mm, and it’s way more grainy, but I will always have love for 110 film. (Side note; I take that picture of Brickley every time I go to Disney Springs)

Some 20 years later and I’m finally getting money that the state of Illinois has been holding from when Best Buy got sued twice for wage theft. (I’ll note, 20 years is my fault. I never filed the paper work for it til this year)
