Martin Stoner walked into the photography lab at Newcastle University. He was studying Ancient History, but he needed some film for his camera. He stood at the desk and gently gave the bell a chime.
A slim man popped his head around the corner of a book base.
‘Morning. What can I do for ya?’ the man asked. He walked around the corner and placed some photos down on the desk, then lent on it with one arm.
‘Hi there, all I’m after is some film for this darn camera’ Martin said as he held the camera out. He noticed the name tag as the man took the camera from Martin’s hand. It read Ron Coxon.
‘Hmm, I think I have some out the back, one sec I’ll grab it’ Ron walked back behind the bookcase and into the storage room.
Martin looked around the Photo lab, there were students art hanging from the walls, one was of the Sydney Harbour Bridge at sun down, looked spectacular. Martin’s eyes skipped across the desk he was standing at. The photos that Ron placed down caught his eye. He gently picked one up and held it out in front of him. In the picture was a ghost, looking through a trashcan, one arm up in the air as it tossed a coke can over its shoulder.
‘Well your in mighty good luck. Last roll of this film we have, only 2 bucks my friend’ Ron walked back to the desk. Sitting the camera down. Martin spun the photo around, holding it out to Ron.
‘I noticed someone is a spirit photographer? Do you know who it is? I would certainly like to meet them’ Martin asked. Ron Smiled.
‘Ah that would be me’
