Found Cameras and Orphan Pictures

"I was at a Sunday market with a dad's friend to buy him a cheap used camera. We found one and decided to purchase a memory card with it.

We were back at home trying the camera out, when I discovered that the memory card has some pictures on it, mainly of two couples at holidays (France and Dubai, 2008). My instinct tells me that this was memory card was lost/stolen, but it definitely does not belong to the camera we bought.

Some info: we bought this in London, and some photos might suggest that they are local.

The second photo is of the couple."

"I was sold a camera in Athens. It is a silver SONY Cybershot 12.1 MegaPixels, in a black case with an extra memory card. I checked the pictures on the card and there is a couple on it which appears to be attending a wedding in a hotel/restaurant called "Fysilanis Logaras" in a Greek island, probably Paros, but am not completely sure."

"I found this camera on Jan. 30 around 3 am. It was found near the corner of Milwaukee and Western Ave. in Chicago.

It is possible the owner attends or knows people who attend Harrington College of Design in Chicago. Memory cards contains 385 pictures dating back to July of 2009.

I think the blog is a fantastic idea. Uncertain how long you've had it, but will post it around to my contacts, Facebook, etc."





"I am now keeping one image on my camera (see attached "ID.jpg") in the event I do lost my camera someone will see my reward message and return it to me.
