PIECE OF C*#P


Epcot, Disneyland- Orlando, FL- July 2009

Forget health care reform for just a minute... do you know that it is near impossible to buy print film at DisneyWorld of all places? I searched in vain amidst the gift shop of the "moderately" priced Wilderness Lodge, which had all manner of t shirts, candy, coffee mugs, and a full complement of liquors available for consumption in one's room only to be told that they 'might' sell film in the theme parks. After sacrificing an arm and a leg for admission to Epcot ($75. x 3) I could barely afford the throw away camera I was "coerced" to buy as I was 'discouraged' to bring my camera into the park in case there was no overpriced film available to purchase.

Although I don't remember, it was reported to me that I said derogatory things about the throw away Kodak as I photographed the theme park. I wasn't too far off- out of the twenty seven shots I took this is the only one I was reasonably excited about.

Never digital - (I'm insistent and consistent) always film- even if it means scouring the World of Disney only to wind up with mediocrity.
