"I found a camera memory card about four years ago in a bar in the Lower East Side, New York City. I think the name of the bar was the Library, but I can't remember for sure. There are a total of 617 pictures of a young couple that lived in New York City."

Camera Found - New Orleans, Louisiana

2009-06-04T21:10:00.008-05:00

"Some dude came up to my dad and asked him if he wanted a camera for $30, so my dad said sure. The guy showed my dad that the camera works, and since my dad has absolutely no idea how these thingamajigs work, he asked me to take a look at it. I looked at the camera and found these pictures inside, and told my dad it is most probably stolen, because the guy he bought is from was not these people.

So my father has asked me to put these pictures online in hopes to find the people this camera belongs to. I know they have a lot of pictures in there, I would like to get it back to them.

PLEASE PLEASE! If you know these people, get them in touch with us."

iPod Found - New York City/Toronto

2009-06-04T21:05:00.000-05:00

"On Jan. 3, I rode the Greyhound bus from New York City to Toronto. On the very back seat, after lifting up its cushion to see why the seat was wet, I discovered an iPod 30GB with a number of photos on it.

The iPod was named "RaEmilLz IP", and some of the pictures in it were from "Ro's camera". It looks like you took a trip in March 2008 to Canada, visiting Toronto and Montreal. You took a lot of pictures at the Montreal Biodome.

If you can identify the serial number and colour of the iPod, or send some pictures of yourself that prove you're the people in the photos, I'd be more than happy to give you back your iPod."

Interview with the Toronto Star

2009-05-22T22:45:00.003-05:00

Click here to read an article on IFoundYourCamera by Nancy White from the Toronto Star and learn about some of the success stories - from Toronto to California to Pennsylvania - and the lost cameras still waiting to be claimed by their owners.

These days, a forgotten digital camera means not 24 or 36 lost pictures but potentially hundreds stored on the memory card.

"The first three months of my daughter's life was on that camera," says Raechel McFarland of Fresno, California, who had left it in a rental car during a Florida vacation.

A man who later got the car tried turning in the camera to the rental company, but its agents suggested Preprost's blog. A friend of the Fresno mother spotted the posted pictures.

"I was absolutely ecstatic when I saw my photos," says McFarland, who was reunited with the camera, a treasured present from her husband.

Memory Card Found - Chattanooga, Tenessee

2009-05-20T21:00:00.001-05:00

"I found a Kodak 256MB SD card about twenty minutes east of Chattanooga. This memory card is full of photos of someone's children or grandchildren. There are Boy Scout meetings, birthday and party cakes, karate classes, Christmas morning photos, a jewelry gift/marriage proposal, a trip to Disneyworld, and many miscellaneous shots.

These boys have obviously had quite a busy and adventurous childhood, and I'm sure their family would like to have this card back."

"A camera was found in a parking lot in Palmer, Alaska and was left in the lost & found for several months before it was given to my friend. She has since given it away, but couldn't bear to destroy the photos once saved on it.

The pictures span in date from May, 2007 to May 2008. Photos cross the country from t-ball games and a couple running a marathon in Rome, New York, to a wedding in Indiana, sight-seeing in Texas(?) and finally end in Alaska. Tell me where the wedding was held in June, 2007 and I will gladly send the photos!"
