Camera and Coffee

My 1957 Moskva 5, a Norwood Director Model C, and my favorite ceramic mug full of New Orleans blend Community Coffee. Taken with the mamiya C330 Pro TLR

Yer giving me seller's remorse there :bang: Beautiful shot though, hope you're enjoying the Moskva as I am the Elmar.

Here's the kitchen table this morning..... can you tell the wife's out of town?

For some reason, the coffee was just really good this morning. :cool:

is that a soft focus 'romance' shot of all your gear?;)
LOL!! No, that's a cheap pos digital shot of [most of] my gear. My sis gave me her old Kodak digi-cam and for the life of me, every shot taken, whether inside/out/flash/sunlight has this little slightly glary, blurry, ghosty glow to it. Maybe it's that big fat thumb print on the plastic lens, eh? :rolleyes:

But hey, if it "makes joe feel normal again," I'll say I was listening to soft music when I took the shot. ;)
 
Great! It looked intentional. Take pictures of the kids and family with it, convert them to black and white, and voila! Soft focus dream shots!

Must be thumb prints. Cool.
 
seems like your kodak has that leica glow!
Yeah, I got myself a can of that there ACME Leica Glow Camera Polish at a yard sale... use it on all my cameras. You guys don't have that?
 
Finally, I'm in a coffee shop with two RF's. To bad I already drank my quota of coffee for the day. So it's tea & my new Bessa R.

Nice neck strap! :)

The way the neck strap is laid curled and in the front reminds me of a turnicut in a street junkie photo. Behind it is not the normal hypodermics but the fixation of another addiction, RANGEFINDERS
:D

The Contax I with original 50/1.5 Sonnar arrived here a few days ago from the Netherlands; it is being sent to Henry Scherer Monday for a redo. Also in the shot is another Contax I with a 50/3.5 collapsible Tessar and Albada finder that was refurbished earlier this year -- Henry does a remarkable job and the camera is a joy to use.
 
It arrived here in Alkmaar after a mere five-day journey: my Canonet QL17 GIII, won on *Bay and coaxed into perfection by G'man (thanks again, Dave...); note the snazzy new black-leather jacket! :)
It's loaded with Reala; now all I need to do is find time between work, and getting this house ready to sell, and doing the preliminary packing, and, and.... :(
 
I know it is not an RF but it is one great TLR. This is the one I got from f/stopblues.
I do need to get a little newer light meter that works well in low light and old eyes.
 
Finally got around to posting a photo of the Leica M4-2 and the Summicron. I was doing some web shots and had a background and lights setup, but it was too late for me and coffee.
This is the camera I got from Joe Leiberman. He told me he never liked the black chrome so he had it chromed and recovered in brown leather. I think it is rather unique but it really needs a chrome lens. I am really proud of this camera and the friendship it represents
