I was aged 7 when I got my my Kodak Brownie 127 Camera. I had 2 cameras
1950

About this memory
1950 – with one I used a black & white spool and with the other camera, I used a coloured spool.
As far as I can remember I was always interested in taking photos. My dad was the same, he and I, always liked to catch the moment no matter where we were, it was a great hobby, it always seemed important and fun to look back on, and I still love taking photos.
