Thanks - you'd have to prise it from my cold dead hands

 

[Bebop]

Ah, so you must be a professional Nice old cameras with a retro feel to the colour palette too.

Was that 35RC a fixed lens? I always wanted a trip and eventually bought myself a second hand XA-2 which I still have. It hasn't been used in a very long time.

Guilty as charged lol.

Yes it's a fixed lens. Similar to the famous Trip 35 but with a proper rangefinder focusing system and shutter speed control. It's a bit smaller too.

Nice couple of cameras Dave. Always hankered after both of those at one time or another.

Week 50 - Abstract

Photographing town centre Xmas lights for work this evening and thought I'd open a can-o-photoshop whupass on one of them!

Christmas Lights Abstract by Dave Green, on Flickr

 

[michael23]

Certainly abstract Dave, a lot going on but I like it.

 

[Cloudforest]

I like it a lot Dave. I find the tree intriguing (didn't see it for a while) and the stained glass is beautiful.

 

[Shugpug]

That's fascinating - I could look at that and try to work out what's going on for a long while!

 

[Cobra]

Mini Planet?
I had that idea also ..
