Minolta What?

On Tyler's last trip to Colorado his dad let him bring this back... YES it's an original Minolta film SLR with the whole works.  Pretty much amazing right?

I recently bought new lenses for my camera, so we decided to go test out our new digs.

Tyler had to reteach me how to put the film in the camera. It's a lost art in the digital era. This was original film that we found in the case.  We hope that it still works.

                                     

The Camera:

                                     

The Photographer:

                                     

Etc. Etc. Etc. Etc. Etc.

                                    

                                       

                                         

                                      

                                          

It's so much more exciting not knowing what the picture looks like right after you take it.  The feeling of instant gratification is replaced with the anticipation of what you may have captured. Remember the days of picking up your photos from wherever they were processed, and how excited you were to look at them?  It'll be fun to get the film back.  Meanwhile, I'd like to thank Tyler for the photography lesson/session.
