In our modern world, cameras are everywhere, but take a trip back to the not-so-distant past, and you'll see a reality that is very different.

Portland photographer Kati Dimoff loves old cameras, and like all good photographers, she has a patient eye for detail. She often finds old cameras at second hand stores and the Goodwill, and sometimes inside, like shells from some beach-head of time, they contain hidden treasures: Undeveloped film.

Once developed, this old film yields images, secrets, and moments. Just this year, she found a camera that contained undeveloped photos of the giant Mount St. Helens eruption, which took place 37 years ago. 

Here, Dimoff discusses her work, and the photos she found (images below).
