Sometimes failed photographic shots turn out interesting after all. It's a bit like the art of found objects, except that there is an original intentionality built into the photograph. The intention was simply foiled, usually by ineptitude or simply loading the camera and sending off an unintentional shot that made it onto the negative. Accident is everywhere around us - may as well embrace it as an aesthetic since "experience invariably teaches by means of surprises" (Peirce). I've collected these over the years. Hope you enjoy them.

UPDATE:One more unintentional photo. I met a good old friend from Poland - a photographer and cinematographer - while taking this shot.

Footballs have clean lines. What you snapped there in Beaufort is a UFO. I'm sure because I've seen photos just like it.
That explains why I woke up the next day with probe scars on my body.
