久しぶりに (It's been a while since I developed some films)

先日と言っても、今学期が始まる前日だったから・・・・・・９月の終わり。
楽しい友人に、７年前に期限が切れた白黒のブローニーフィルムを１５本ほどいただいた。

う～ん・・・・・・”期限切れ”。
それも７年前。

もらったその時は、面白いからとルンルンだった。

あれから２ヶ月の間、あまりにも大学の課題で忙しく、
全くカメラを触る時間がなく、フィルムは放置。

やっと時間が出来たので、久しぶりにカメラを抱え、
期限切れのフィルムを詰めて、シャッターを押す。
そして、現像。

真夜中に、
それも午前２時過ぎ。
わたしだけの充実した時間。

心が久しぶりに安らぐ。

やっぱり写真、すきなんだな。

My good (and funny) friend gave me some 120 films a few month ago.
She found some films from her closet, when we spent time together in her room.

Those 120 films are already expired.....about 7 years ago.
hmmm... 7 years ago.... such a long time ago....

Maybe it's not good (not accurate) but maybe it is fun to try.
I was so excited about free films.

After school started, I couldn't have time to touch camera,
because I had tons of assignments.
I almost forget about those films.

I just finished big assignments two days ago,
so I went to outside to shoot something with the films,
and I developed some films tonight.

I usually develop films around 2 a.m.
too late??
but it is very very quiet and I can enjoy "my" time.
No one bother me.....
just quiet... and dark.

I had really good time....
I realized that I love photography.
I knew that I love photography,
but I was so busy everyday
and I almost forget about this good feelings!!

I love photography....
even I can not take a good photo...
