Flashbulbs part 1

I recently spent a day playing with lots of vintage flashbulbs. If you're unfamiliar, they were used in the 1960s and earlier in photography. Each bulb is only good for one exposure.


After doing what I needed to do with the flashbulbs, we had "play time".
Here's a few of the outtakes...

Used bulbs- burned and melty

Tomorrow I'll be sharing why I was using these in the first place, and its not for photographing purposes...
