Scan of the very first photo I ever took,mid 40s with an Ensign Coronet. the print measures one and a quarter inches,common in those days of wartime austerity. Things have moved on a bit since then but nothing measures up to the excitement during the twelve mile bus trip to get the first ever prints from Boots the chemist after the wait of a week.

Oh, do I remember those days. It was so exciting; the wait, and then the packet in the hand, and the rush to find a place to have a quick look, and in my case, the usual disappointment at the final result. On the other hand, when I did get better at it, the results were proudly shown off to family and friends.
