Some, I’m able to figure out when they were taken, like the second image. That’s Autumn’s high-school friend Kelly with her then-fiancé Chris. We did an engagement session for them on July 6, 2007. So, there is about a decade between when I took the shot and when the film was developed on March 17, 2017. I bet most of these were taken in the summer of 2007. Wow.

Old Holga Film covid-19: day 364 | US: GA | info | act

I thought the film I had kinda forgotten at Coke’s was only a few years old, but it turns out, it was much older—like over ten years. Giles finished scanning the what appears to be very degraded negatives—likely from sitting in a drawer for years even before I took them to be developed. Most look like crap. These are the best of the bunch—four rolls worth in no particular order.
