Abandoned

There is an old abandoned school about 20 minutes from where I live and I've always wanted to go shoot some pictures of the poor thing. It's not that sad of story though; the school was just moved into a nicer, newer building a few minutes away. It's not like it became abandoned because the city didn't have enough money or children to keep it running. It is a little creepy though, and every time I looked up into a window, I expected to see some ghost child staring back at me. (I'm terrible with scary things; I've never even seen a scary movie. It's more the ghost and paranormal things than the blood and guts stuff. I started to watch The Messengers one night, but embarrassingly had to turn it off practically right after the opening scene...)

Anyways, I managed to take some pretty interesting photos with a new film camera I bought. I'm still trying to figure it out, but I feel like the fact that it was film kind of added to the old, abandoned feeling of the pictures. (Let me know if you see any strange shadowy figures...)

Thrift Find: Treasure Chest

I found this cute little treasure chest (a.k.a. a tin box) at the flea market a couple months ago and am still infatuated with it. I love the colors. I think it's supposed to be a Christmas tin, but really I think I'll keep it out all year. Right now it's holding various ribbons and buttons.
I just thought of this as I was writing this post, but if any of you have a Flickr account, add me as a contact if you want and I'll add you! Check out my photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/oohvintage/ and add me!
