so in love

DateTuesday, November 3, 2009 at 08:42PM
So I bought this old Weltaflex twin lens reflex camera made in Germany in the 50's thinking I would use it for my Through the Viewfinder photography. Then my BFF, Tracy, gave me a roll of 120 film and we took it for a spin at the lake (on one of our foto bike rides) not knowing if it was even going to work. This is a fully manual camera. No auto focus. Heck, no focus to speak of. Just numbers and estimations. On a wing and a prayer, I took the film to be developed (at Walmart of all places) and received my prints yesterday. To me, the results are nothing short of miraculous. I'm head over heels in love with it.
