It sounds like Japanese, doesn't it?I couldn't be in NY for my birthday this year (did I mention that today is my birthday?) but I did get a surprise when I picked up this roll of film from the photo store and found images of Coney Island from several birthday trips ago.
At the time I had just bought myself a cute little Diana+ camera and loaded my first roll of 120 film. Photography was still more of a curiosity than an obsession to me then.
And for a variety of reasons the finished roll has sat in the camera all this time.
Until now.
I will definitely not take so long to develop the second roll.

Happy Birthday!
And those are some really cool shots - what a great surprise!
Happy birthday! Hope your day is spectacular as summer slowly comes to an end :(
I love these Coney Island shots! What kind of camera were you using for the fair pictures? So pretty.
Thank you!
Hi Ruth, I shot those with my Canon digital rebel but processed them in Photoshop to give them an older feel.
I can't believe summer is ending. Didn't it just begin?
hope your day is lovely beginning to end.
What a great way to celebrate a great day!! happy, happy to you! smooches
Happy Birthday, my friend! I love these lomo shots! They are so evocative and just right for Coney Island. I especially love the horse. Speaking of cameras and film, I just bought a Holga and am excited to start using it. Do you have one? If so, how do you like it? I sometimes create Holga affects when I process my pictures, so I thought it was about time I work with the real thing! xo
Hey those are nice!
Have a good birthday.
happy birthday. what a fun surprise to find photos you had forgotten taking.
Uhm... AWESOME!

Your own personal new year. Happiest of birthdays.
These images are so cool and a great surprise present! Happy birthday!

geez, i haven't been to coney island in decades! have to go before they "develop" it
happy birthday! today is my anniversary, 13 years. (=
i love these photos and have been thinking of getting a diana+ since i broke up with my holga.
Hi Gigi, thanks! Actually I don't have a Holga yet. Just the Diana+ which I like because it has an option for taking pinhole photos (though I haven't used it yet). I'd like to get the Blackbird Fly next and a polaroid camera if they start making the film again...
Happy Anniversary Kristen! You'd love the Diana+ and I think the new one even comes with a flash.
oh my gosh, how fun. and what a great gift to yourself or from the universe. Happy Birthday, may many more wonders find you...
Happy birthday -- it's a beautiful day!
