First of a kind

While this picture might not win any awards (well, it definitely will not since I don't ever enter any - but you get the idea), it is significant. It came from the first roll of film I've ever developed on my own. I have a darkroom for printing which I do use but up until now I've always had my films developed by someone else. Not anymore. It was pretty awesome to see that strip of film drying with actual pictures on it :)

A Soviet portrait

Got my hands on a Soviet lens, worth roughly 30 euros or so. It has seen the first man walking on the moon, the cold war, the fall of the Berlin wall and the fire sale of the USSR. And it's still going strong. Not bad.
