Row of Wigs at a Costume Shop

Row of Wigs at a Costume Shop

I am continuing my effort to be a bit more social with my photography.

As part of my effort to add more of a social element to my photography, I ventured out with my Nikon F loaded with Ilford FP4 Plus film and resolved to stop into some local businesses that I hadn’t been in before

One of my stops was in a costume shop. “Is that a film camera?” the shopkeeper asked me. I responded, “Why, yes, it is!” or something to that effect, and I told him all about it, perhaps in more detail than he was counting on. (One of my weaknesses is gushing about my Nikon F even to those who may not care as much as I do.) The shopkeeper mentioned that he has a cousin who is very much into film photography and had a growing collection of film cameras. He himself had an old Olympus that, upon finishing the conversation, I encouraged him to use.

I then wandered around the shop and came across a room toward the back of the store that had several rows of wigs that looked interesting.
