#FolkloreThursday: `A cattle-herding #brownie of the #Scottish islands, the #gunna hung about small farms making sure the cows did not trample the garden. As with many such helpful sprites, he went naked despite the weather. Any attempt to provide clothes drove the gunna away.`

Indeed! I well remember the days of rolls of #blackandwhite #film loaded into a #Kodak #Brownie #camera.
That gave you 8 pictures which you had to choose carefully as the whole roll would have to last a week, and you wouldn't see the results, grainy 3" x 2" prints, till after you got home and had taken the film to be developed at the local chemists shop.
Typical examples from my early teenage years at:

Maximalmenge für den Brownie in der Tasse ausgereizt, würde ich sagen .
Variante vom Brownie-in-a-cup Rezept, ist jetzt die doppelte Menge (und Zucker etwas reduziert). Verwendete Menge:
90g Mehl
85g Zucker
2EL Kakao
Prise Salz
4 EL Öl
6 EL Wasser
Mikrowelle: 600W ca. 4 min mit Abdeckung! Ohne Abdeckung und zwischendurch pausieren, wäre es übergelaufen.
Ist ein gutes Rezept für plötzlich auftretenden Süßhunger

Psyched to shoot my first roll of large format film on my “new” camera from 1917-ish: a Kodak “No. 2 Folding Autographic Brownie” (sez so, right on the handle). Only 8 pics/ roll, cuz they’re like 4 inches! Shooting Ilford 400 speed B&W. Will find a way to use the timed shutter: release once to open, release again to close.

B&H Photo Video closes at ONE on Fridays, not at THREE as I keep thinking. Got there at 1:30 and boy was I sad. Walked to 36th & 5th, to "42nd Street Photo" on 36th Street, natch, where I paid more than twice for B&W 120 roll film. Boy are my dogs tired (I live 46th/ 10th).

Kodak Brownie Starlet - has a proven track record of being a shitty camera (at least in my hands)
Shot a whole roll of Rollei Crossbird during a walk in Rome today

I am now the holder of a family archive of old #film #negatives, several hundred to possibly a thousand or so. Most appear to be #Brownie - #117, #126, and other roll film. But some are larger, possibly medium format?
Time to get them home, stored safely, and then learn how to #digitize.

Ich hab's echt schwer. Blumenkohlbrownie bei Honest Greens. Schmeckt besser als es klingt. #food #cauliflower #brownie
Any brownie can be a 2-bite brownie if you try hard enough.
@sauer_lauwarm @miracorvino es ist nie zu spät den grandiosen #Brownie des #FettUndZucker zu erleben
I gaze at the #barnacle on a rock I found by the sea years ago, tightly closed to a hostile #matrix, wishing I could close up like that.
But if the water never comes back, a #mind goes #crazy.
I take another #brownie and savour it.
