Found Photos

Photos, negatives, and slides that I find or that find me. These pictures come from my personal collection of slides and photos I purchased at estate sales, thrift shops, and eBay. Sometimes I murder these photos with filters, other times I leave them generally unmolested. I reblog stuff that fits the genre of found photos, slides, and negatives.
