http://blog.nickdavidwright.net/2010/11/wrecked-car.html

I was so surprised to find this negative in my archive (i.e.-
shoebox). This was taken with a Pentax K1000, sometime in the summer
1999 right when I began to get really serious about photography. I
don't remember which lens it was, though I highly suspect it was
either the Sears 135/2.8 or the Sears 80-200/4. Kodak Gold 100 film.

Too bad no (non-photo) stores carry 100 speed film anymore. I guess I
should just be thankful I can find film locally at all.

Oh, by the way, since getting the scanner I have completely scrapped
everything that was on my blog before. So please excuse any mess.

Certainly nothing wrong with that scan!  It looks as if that Epson was a
great investment. I like the colour and tone on this.

Nice shot, perfectly good scan

I chuckled at this line of yours on the blog site

I shot it way back in 1999, and I can't believe it has survived all of 
our moves.

Take heart though, film isn't really all that much more expensive than
digital if you factor everything in.

 Just so you'll know, I went and bought a roll of film today, and a battery

 All they had was Fuji Superia X-tra 400 (it was a Dollar General Store).
  I'll shoot through it, get it processed at Sam's Club, and see how I like
 it.  Then, I'll probably go to the local camera shop to see if they have any
 good b/w film, shoot it and get it processed.  Then, in all likelihood, I'll
 get a damned film scanner.

 Then, you'll be getting a subpoena from my lawyer to appear as a witness on
