It's a Photoswap 2012!



I'm really excited to be taking part in this year's Photoswap organised by Rhianne at For The Easily Distracted.

I've been following Rhianne's blog for about a year now but didn't feel confident enough to register for last year's Photoswap. However, I didn't hesitate to register for this year and I'm really looking forward to taking part.

The idea is that you take a roll of film or buy a disposable camera then send it to your swap buddy to be developed and they do the same (obviously, or else it wouldn't be a swap, would it?). You then get a complete surprise when your buddy's film is developed, flick through the photos while making lots of 'ooooh' and 'aaaahh' sounds then finally post the photos to your blog so that everyone else can see them.

I haven't used an analogue camera for a long time so I'm slightly nervous that I won't have the security of my delete button if I accidentally take a picture of my toes or something (I did that today, come to think of it). Still...walk on the wild side, push the boundaries, live life on the edge, that's me all over.....ahem. Life doesn't have a delete button so I don't suppose it's a big deal that a camera doesn't either.

You can still register to take part in Photoswap 2012 by clicking here and filling in your details.

Ooooh, I wonder who my swap buddy will be.........

  1. That sounds amazing! So retro as well, I don't even know where to get photos processed anymore! I found myself thinking 'but what happens if I take out of focus photos?' no delete button. Scary but exciting!

    1. Exactly! I'm sure it'll all be fine though. Famous last words.
