Have you ever lost a camera before? A memory card? A photograph?
Well, don’t lose faith. There actually ARE nice people out there who wish to return them to their rightful owners!
Found Cameras and Orphan Pictures is a blog that updates every Thursday, posting photos from the cameras or memory cards that people have found all over the world. If you’ve lost your camera, keep your eye on the site. You just might spot a photo that you took! Then all you have to do is contact them about it and shortly afterward, you’ll get your camera (or memory card) back. Or maybe a friend of yours lost their camera and you happen to recognize the people in the photograph – you can even help your friend get their camera back too.
On the other hand, maybe you’ve found one of these lost items. Don’t hesitate; email them four pictures from your found camera or memory card and tell them all you can about where, when, and how you found it. They welcome you to share your own thoughts about the found camera or the photos you chose to send in.
If you’re really keen on this idea, you can even keep up with them on their own Facebook Group.
But all in all, this is a neat idea, no?
