Everything Street Photography

No pictures yet -- but I was over at my folks' house last night and they had been going through some old stuff. My dad was quite into photography back in the day, then I came along and kind of distracted he and mom for a while...but they were cleaning up and found a camera that someone had given him a loooong time ago. At least 25 years ago. But the camera itself is up to 69 years old -- 1938 is when it was first built (it's a Zeiss Icon 515/2). The thing is built like a tank -- it puts my poor digital rebel to shame as far as construction. And it's so simple!

But the best part...there was a roll of film inside. It almost certainly is dead and won't have anything on it. But, I'm taking it to the lab tomorrow anyway -- I figure there's a 1 in a million chance that the film can be developed and will have some kind of captured gem from the past, from who knows when.

And I'll be getting some new film, too. I'll keep you guys updated with whatever I find.

Oh -- by the way, I "borrowed" the camera from my dad, but I think he realizes that I'm actually stealing it.
