Back in May of 2007 I drove with some friends somewhere south of Chicago, to a place called Goose Lake. I had the notion that the place would be interesting. I was wrong. The whole thing was flat, featureless prairie. To be truthful, there was a big lake there and a nature preserve, but it was only of interest to fishermen with boats. Otherwise, the only mildly interesting thing to see was an old, preserved, log cabin which looked like one built by the old settlers.

On this occasion I carried both my Canon 30D and the Canon F-1 that I had borrowed to shoot a few rolls. Luckily, I had an excellent roll of Ilford HP5 400 ASA film, which although expired, functioned well enough (along with some Photoshop processing). I promise you though: the processing only revealed what should have been, had the film not been expired and had I exposed the shots correctly.
