“Dwayne’s Photo in Parsons, Kansas, was the last lab on the planet to process Kodachrome and stopped developing the iconic film forever. When Kodak stopped producing the film, they gave me the last roll. When I finished shooting the final frames, I hand-delivered  it to Parsons. Here are a few of those last 36 frames.” (Steve McCurry)

Excerpt: To commemorate his reunion with Kodachrome, Steve decides to return to the place where it all began. “After New York, I was thinking: where else in the world can we go to continue this last roll of Kodachrome; and for me, the most logical place - the most visual place - and culturally just amazing… is India.”
