[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 835959, member: 48483"] In January 2022 Tim was the 3rd of my 3 older brothers to pass on. A 17 year long endurance with emphysema that ended with a cancer. Yes, he liked smoking a lot. All my brothers did. Tim did like to play with photography. He took photos at biker parties and rallies. He did several nude sessions with models and I think he was wanting to pursue this as a side-hustle. He had cards printed that we found. Following his death, I took all the photo gear that looked like it had a chance of working. It was mostly Nikon stuff, and that fits in with my gear. But it was all 1990's equipment. An N8008 SLR that refuses to power-on. A N70 SLR that appeared to work, but then the plastic film door latch broke. Some lenses (only a couple worth hanging on to), some flashes and remote flash cables. And 2 unopened rolls of Kodak T-Max 400 ISO B/W film. I found a repair kit for the N70 film door somebody makes. Then it took some months after to find the speck of plastic that wedged into the edge seal and prevented the film door from seating closed. But I sorted all of that out this spring, and with summer here I proceeded with the project I had in mind. Shoot this 20 year old film (expired 2006) in Tim's own camera. I would use my own lenses though (I have better gear). This starts at the end of June, 2025 with a trip to the center of the North-West hemisphere near Wausau, Wisconsin. Just a couple of test photos then on to Jurustic Park further south. I shot with Nikon 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5.
