grassy fields




i have an old brownie hawkeye that i like to play around with, the kind of box camera that you look down into to shoot the image, and i got these pics back today from the good folks at film for classics. all the black and whites were garbage, but the color ones turned out great...at least i think so, although i think i need to open up the camera and clean the lens, theres some kind if oily film on it...which works great for these pics, but this camera was found by a friend of mine at the dump up in fairbanks alaska, so im sure its overdue for a cleaning. theres something really nice about taking it out and shooting with it though. holding it down at your belly, it feels like centering your chi through the lens....
