Bloop! Bloop!
Today is Wednesday. Photo-collection day in case there was something photo-worthy over the weekend and I managed to take my rolls of film into the drugstore on Monday.
There was something on last weekend, i.e. the International Folklore Festival in the neighbouring town, and I did manage to take my 7 rolls to the store on Monday. No wonder I was quite excited this morning. Would my attempts at getting at least ONE good photo out of more than 250 have been successful??? Would there be any photo worthwhile scanning and presenting here?
All 7 bags are back. Yay! That is GOOD.
The price I would have to pay, so I had calculated, would be 21,35 for all (yes, it is that cheap!). Why did the saleslady say 27,83 in the end? Hang on... each bag should be 3,05 .... why was there one at over 9 Euro. 9,53, to be precise???
Dang. Blooper!
They made those photos twice as big as I had ordered, and therefore three times as expensive. My fat red x was exactly in the box for the small photos! Not my fault then!
Had to leave those photos there, so they'd be returned to the lab and the mistake corrected. Too bad!
I unpack the others, everything's there, negatives, index-sheet... but where are the picture numbers? Neither on the back of the photos nor on the index-cards.
Dang! Blooper!
That meant I had to check each photo with its negative number and put the number onto the back myself as not to get them into a chaos.
Why is it that there's always SOMETHING when my photos come back from the lab? Always some little thing, but NEVER is everything all right. Never!
And then I had to learn yesterday that the only real photo shop (not a corner in the drugstore where you just hand in your films) nearby, i.e. in that town where there was that folklore festival, is closing down. That was my ONE AND ONLY address for some real black+white development, if I used such kind of film (and not the C41-method). And that was my shop for anything about my camera, and generally the shop I went to whenever I had a question. And in a week from now they'll no longer be there! :shock:
Blooper, too!
All bloopers here! :cry:
(Sorry, felt like I had to vent just a bit)
