plane spotting

I spent part of my Saturday near the Fernandina Beach Municipal Airpot, photographing birds, the salt marsh, and distant bridges. I couldn’t pass up the chance to grab a few shots of airplanes passing overhead.

One of my first cameras – Kodak Instamatic 

Poster: Rendez-vous à Montréal—Bring your camera! / Affiche : Rendez-vous à Montréal – Apportez votre appareil!

So 1960s!

I still have the camera and somewhere I have my Expo 67 Passport. I was 13 years old when me and my mom went. We stayed in an apartment in Montreal for two weeks – lots of fond memories.

Technically my first camera. I got it for Christmas 1963 and I’ve taken hundreds of images with this thing over the early years. It still works!
