Photo Bombing




Thanks to (INTO) THE FRAY I learned a new term: Photo Bombing.

Apparently a “bombed” photograph is where the original intent of the picture was deliberately disturbed, distorted or even wrecked by someone or something doing something which changes that original intent.

A lot of this occurs just as the photo is snapped.

Those fingers held as rabbit ears behind someone’s head are the most common one seen.

Here are a few.

At the beach - Book of Prints with Negatives

Eight on the beach plus one
Double Photobomb plus some lurkers.

THE KIDS Lesson one. It is always a mystery how a photograph of any of these precious children could end up lost or abandoned. Here are a few. You will probably say "Ooh..." at least once.

The Typewriter - A Modern Antique


T Sgt Reese in Gunn off 03
A Typewriter. Now THERE'S an antique.

Along came the word processor and suddenly the typewriter was extinct.
T Sgt Reese in Gunn off 01 A true antique. T Sgt Reese in Gunn off 02 Oops.

Typewriter
I know it's odd. I decided to do a page of found photographs that contain a typewriter.

Most of them I found in two sets. The top three came from "In the South of England".

It is a large file of 35mm negatives I found in a junk store. They turned out to be all about Bassingbourn Air Base during world war two.

The square format color prints came from an interesting set I purchased from an estate sale that seems to be about a teacher and his friends. I called it
"Dee and the Business School"
