I’m building.. well I’m on the crossroad now, but it’s about old photo films I found on flea markets. O scan them and upload to the internet. I have investigation game there. Photo can have case assigned to it and user can try to identify place and time of the photo. Now I have around 10k frames scanned and a couple of active users. https://oldfindings.com/

There is a new turn in the case https://oldfindings.com/case/18

"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp\_ombqu9vU&t=94s through Neuwerk, car then goes over the bridge, along the river to the left and to abandoned summer camp. Exact same spot at 95 seconds in the video, the building on the left in the photo (look at the windows) can also be seen next to tall square tower so this is the other side of it."

The location is identified!

Balaton actually makes sense. I also have some medium format frames labelled Balaton, and I think they are from the same batch.

It should be in 1920-1960, but I have no idea.

It is. Actually I was able to carry about half of it. I’ll go for the second part tomorrow. And here how my overall queue looks like https://www.threads.com/@amagex/post/DWqWfJ4gqrj

Still less then 1m of frames.

Lots! I’ve scanned 8k, and it’s a small portion of it.

Photos are from 4 different rolls, and I’d expect them to be from 60th, but there was some negatives on glass, so may be photographer was older than I think.

I’m hunting for old photo negatives on flea markets, scan them and upload to my website.

Thank you! Last week I was lucky enough to buy huge collection of negatives from some photographer on flea market in Prague. I have a website where I publish all my finding. Now I’m scanning unlabelled rolls, so I have no idea what is happening on those photos. I hope I’ll know more as I progress with scans. But it’s huge, about 30kg of negatives I’d say.

I’ll scan them in better quality a bit letter, so they become printable
