See the link for a post on frustration at not finding anything to photograph...seems the posts did help a lot. I sat in front of the tv, then looked and saw these plastic film cans. So..at least a shot! This is enough for the moment. So what to do with these? My wife uses film but waits and waits and waits to get the prints done. Yikes. This is the way it is. We might have holiday images from 6 or more months ago still in the cans. Oh well, I will wait and mention the film once in a while. I really liked the look of the old containers my deceased dad had...from the 50's. Neat, beat the plastic ones for a photo at least. I post this to talk, mostly. Maybe someone will relate to it. The undeveloped film...can't press the issue too much. Could take the stuff to the developer myself..idea! The other why of this post is that I was uplifted by the thread on the link and did get a shot..not a great shot but a shot. This is nice. Here are a few of the comments from the thread. To see what is said fully and much more is there, go to the thread and read it yourself if ever in a "photo frustration" or "photog's block". This helped me. Thanks folks..really. "If you're at home, explore objects around the house. Experiment with angles and lighting...SEE the differently!" "... make sure you always turn around and look behind you." "...perceive things in different ways..." This works. TomD'Art.

you can put blightlight paint in some of them and paint some on the outside . then set them up and shoot with the paint in the cans showing and the painted ones on the outside you can lay down in a pattern. But you need a blacklight to do this lol You ask for a ideal so here one

what you see is not what you know; it in your face
