Grumpy grandpa Abraham Simpson might have declared “I’ll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I recognise Missour-ah!” but there’s no danger of that in the Kosmonauts programme.

Jacqueline Alkula is the latest Kosmonaut, and she’s shot her first roll in the chill of a Missouri winter.

This is one of the great things about featuring photos taken by Kosmo Foto mono customers – mostly I’m seeing people’s neighbourhoods and back yards, as they shoot their first roll close to home. 

Though I’m hoping too that at least a few future Kosmonauts have room in their carry-on luggage to take a few rolls on their adventures.
