You have some nice surroundings there in The States. I would love to see that myself one day.
Meet my new camera (the one on the right):
My boyfriend picked up a box from where he had his own photography store before he joined his dad. 2 Rolleicords came along of which this one is in the best condition. I added it to my collection so now I can experiment with 6x6 for real! We have to go there soon coz there all still like 20 boxes left with cameras, 2 Leitz projectors and 2 large format (8x10") cameras, the latter probably not functioning anymore.
Really awesome playing around with that old stuff. Lot's of unfamiliar brands, lot's of solutions to "problems" nobody even wonders about anymore with all these cameras that take care of everything without you having to think about how things work or know when to press the shutter-release button.
