Shooting with a disposable camera

With the advent of summer and my foray into watersports, I’ve taken to shooting with a waterproof disposable camera. I fall into the water far too frequently to take my DSLR anywhere near water.

There is something quite magical about purchasing a cheapo camera, snapping 27 exposures and taking them to the lab to get processed. The excitement we used to feel at getting film developed (or even finding an old roll of film somewhere) has all but disappeared with the digital revolution.

On my recent trip to Cambersands beach in the South of England, we took a batch of such photos. See the results below. Note the authentic ‘wrist-strap in front of lens’ look in a couple of these.
