This is a photograph of several strips of photographic film negatives. It shows four rows of photographic film negatives on a flat, dark surface, with black and white scenes. Each negative is rectangular with sprocket holes along the edges. The scenes within the film strips include urban settings, architectural elements, and views of water. There is handwriting at the top right corner that says "SANTIAGO." Variations in lighting and contrast are visible, typical of exposure differences in negative film.
