The Photo Game: Travel
This week's prompt was "travel," which coincided with a trip to Oceanside, California. Well, actually the prompt was, "Up up and away, travel travel hey!" (No idea what inspired this goofiness from my wife.)

Background
I joined Kenneth Wajda and a small group of photographers in a weekly photo game awhile ago. Each week Kenneth wrote a prompt, and we were tasked with creating a photograph that met the prompt. Unfortunately Kenneth's photo game is taking a break.
I am still enjoying film photography, and my wife has graciously agreed to provide me with a surprise prompt each week. So, I plan to continue with my own personal photo game.
The rules are still the same:
- All submissions must be scans of film, no photos from digital cameras
- Images must be taken, processed, and submitted by 8AM each Saturday
- Miss a week, and you're out
My goal in playing is simple. Get out and shoot film.

This photo was the very first one from the roll. I arrived at the hotel, dug the camera out of my luggage, traded pants for shorts, and took this picture before setting out to explore.
I captured it on Ilford HP5+ with my Canonet QL17.
