A little challenge!

Over the weekend my camera died. That's a sad, sad sentence to type, my friends! Kevin and I were out and about exploring those pretty ledges I blogged about a while back when all of a sudden my camera stop taking pictures. Rather, it started taking plain black photos. My first thought was "Oh no, my expensive lens!" so I changed lenses...still black. Changed all the settings...still black. Changed the settings some more...still black. I did every single thing I could think of (like the things you do with your phone or computer when it acts silly - remove the battery, turn it on and off, etc) still nothing. I was in tears. I rely on my camera so much. I rarely go anywhere without it. It's basically attached to my neck at all times.

I called Canon and they're having me send it out to them to get fixed. (They think it's a sensor issue) While I will get my baby back in the not too distant future I'm going to use this really unfortunate situation as an excuse to shoot more film! That's something that has been on every single new years goal list for a few years. Each year I shoot a little more but I'm going to use this time to really, really play with all my film cameras.
So I made myself a little goal. I want to shoot ten rolls of film before I get my digital camera back. Not rules other than that. They can be of anything and with any of my film cameras - instax included.

I'm very excited. I've already shot two full rolls (and finished off another that was half way done already) since Saturday. I can't wait to get them plus whatever else I shoot developed! I'll definitely be sharing my some photos from my little challenge as soon as I get them back.
