The Last Roll of Kodachrome (NPR)

This is a link to an article I happened upon earlier today. I'm looking forward to seeing the images taken on the last roll that was produced. Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing that story. The Afghan Girl photo is probably the first image I remember from National Geographic.

This will be interesting. I sense a Smithsonian thing to happen.

Honestly, I was never a huge Kodachrome fan but it was the thing. I did shoot Ektachrome though periodically.

Since Fujichrome Velvia came out, Kodachrome, with the exception of Paul Simon's reference, means nothing to me.
