Return of the Bakelite Leica!

[Proteus617]

During the initial CLA of my Argus AF, I accidentally flipped the middle element of the lens. Turned out I liked the effect, so I left it that way for several rolls. Finally got around to un-flipping it and...not much difference, possible because that middle element is so tiny. Here's a few from the "un-flipped" test roll:

Sugar boat being unloaded at the Domino's factory:

Old pump house, now devoted to architectural salvage:

Bo's beach cruiser with a two-stroke. It does 50+mph on the flat.

Regards,
-Matthew

These photos wouldn't be from Baltimore, would they ? We had a Domino's plant there on the harbor...


Nice pics... I need to dig-out my Argus A and shoot a roll...

Yes, that's South Baltimore, and the Domino's plant is still in operation. On hot summer days Locust Point stinks of molasses.

I miss McCormick Spice being down on the Inner Harbor; always loved the smell of cinnamon and cardamom...
