| Over holiday weekends I enjoy getting away from my commercial work to spend some time with my collection of old cameras. The photo above of the Empire State Building and the one below of the lamp post were both taken on film with the Leica I that is pictured above in the masthead for this blog, and also shown at the bottom of this post. Scanning the negative in color mode gave a sepia tint to the images. |

| Sun light was streaming in from the right and I knew it would flare dramatically with the older, uncoated lens. When shooting film where you do not have the instant gratification of reviewing shots, you just have to hope things work out the way you plan. |

| This is the camera I used for the photos above and the oldest 35mm camera I have, a 1930's Leica I, Model A with a fixed 50mm Elmar collapsible lens and accessory rangefinder. I had this camera restored to complete working order and still use it for photography. |
