Road to Kodachrome

A brief summary of the short road trips from this starting

summer with my NikonF70 and a Kodak ULTRAMAX 400 ISO 35mm;

Paul Simon's song couldn't be more suitable !

When I think back

On all the "krap" I learned at high school

It’s a wonder

I can think at all

And though my lack of education

Hasn’t hurt me none

I can read the writing on the wall

Kodachrome

They give us those nice bright colours

They give us the greens of summers

Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day

I got a Nikon camera

I love to take photographs

So mama don’t take my Kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew

When I was "single"

And brought them all together for one night

I know they'd never match

My sweet imagination

Everything looks worse in black and white

Kodachrome

They give us those nice bright colours

They give us the greens of summers

Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day

I got a Nikon camera

I love to take photographs

So mama don’t take my Kodachrome away
