Summer lomo shot #3

I really love the soft look of this photo - in fact almost every single shot of this first roll of film, i put in my new, old Illford sportsman turned out great. I'm half through the second roll, can't wait to see the result.

A new blue baby

It has been over a month, so i thought i would share a little about what i have been up to, which is not very much.

I started on my new job, which is hard - teaching 4th grade!

But it is getting better and easier, along whith the kids getting to know me and I them.

The school where i work, is a small school in the coun

tryside, so i had to get a car...and how lucky am I, my very (own) first car is also one my absolute dreamcars.

A Fiat 500

Here is my little blue baby, isn't it just the cutest little thing? I would love to get fluffy white clouds on the sides of it...

The inside - also blue :-)

I would love to get family portraits taken - whit a 50's-style picnic theme, like these. Of course with the Fiat in the background.

I just love these photos from LIFE, shot by Leonard Mccombe, se more here.

This picture is from my sisters wedding in 2007, (shot by me). I would like to get one of the old ones, one day, maybe a pretty pink one...

Last but not least, the first thing on my christmas list a Dianamini, also small, cute and blue, would be perfekt for the new car.

How lucky am I?

I was given a really great gift today from an old lady who is a friend of the family - my father has known her all of his life and I think care for her as much as for his own mother. She is one of those people who is always satisfied and happy about her life. She has a great memory and loves to tell stories about her life. Infact she is writing her life story in little notebooks and the Danish national Museum has actually borrowed one of the books to copy. My parents visited her today and when she heard how much I love to take pictures and about my Holga camera, she went into the attic and found these beauties :-). And now they are mine to keep.

The oldest one is a Kodak 120film camera - I have already loaded it with film - and i don't even know if it really works - but i think it does - so much fun.... (my dad think this camera must be at least 80 years old)

The other one is an Canon, my guess is that it is from the fifties. I think it work as well, haven't tried it yet. It is a pretty heavy camera - must be a good quality. The both have really nice leather cases/bags. Well that's it- just had to brag.
