I found these pics recently on an SD card that was left in a Kodak EasyShare digital camera by the previous owner.
Not bad for an early 10-megapixel digital camera from Kodak. Thanks for stopping by! – Chris

A rather long name for a small Florida State Park. Located in North Central Florida along the border with Georgia. The world famous Suwannee River runs through the park.

Floods are common along this river and the trees show the effects.Not much water in May when this picture was taken. Late Spring in Florida can be quite dry.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

An abandoned Florida souvenir shop and package store located along US Highway 17 just south of the Georgia Florida border. I enjoy poking around in buildings like this as the photographic possibilities are limitless. These images were taken back in the Spring of 2017 and at that time the buildings hadn’t been tagged with graffiti.
Last call for alcohol.The adjacent abandoned motel.
Thanks for stopping by and have a beautiful day!

Canon F-1 with FD80-200mm f/4 on Kodachrome 25. The light was fading fast and ASA 25 doesn’t work well when hand held during telephoto photography.

I purchased this Super 8 camera from a friend way back in 1977 while stationed in Japan on the USS Midway. I ran quite a few reels of film through it before the video revolution took hold in the early 1980s. I’ve since sold the camera to another collector (a few years back) but I still miss not owning it. What a beast but man was it an awesome camera to use. It’s macro and slow motion capabilities were not to be believed.
Here I am in the Philippines (near the Subic Navy Base) using the Canon with a curious onlooker.
As time went by my original Canon F-1 became somewhat obsolete as new advances in technology and electronics could deliver a lot of camera features in a “compact” 35mm SLR.
The Canon A-1. Lots of stuff packed in a compact camera (compared to the F-1).
I still have a couple of A-1s in my collection – one for show and one for go. Pictured above is the go-to camera in my bag. My Canon F-1 pictured below. This was a beast to carry on a photo walk!
The monster F-1 with all of its goodies. This is my original F-1 that pretty much went with me everywhere in the 1970s and 1980s. See pic below.Me with the F-1 while walking on the outskirts of Kowloon (Hong Kong) around 1978 or so.
I should mention that both images of me were taken by my very good Navy buddy and dear friend Jim. Sadly Jim and his wife were killed in an airplane crash in late 2001. Jim was a Nikon guy and it was always great fun to see who got the best from their cameras.
