Apr 26: Last of the Kodachrome

I shot the last frame of my Kodachrome today. And messed it up. I'd been shooting the last roll with my Mju II point and shoot and forgot to turn the flash off, something, very annoyingly, you have to do every time you turn the Mju on. But I forgot, and, as I was photographing something behind glass, I'll just get a big reflection of the flash. I hate built in flash. On the very rare occasions you need it, it's never powerful enough. The rest of the time it either ruins your picture or at best is just a drain on your battery.

Anyway, here's me lit with a Kodachrome slide. Hoorah! for Kodachrome, and Hoorah! I've run out of it!

Yes, you look a bit put out.
