These are all the rolls of film I took into the lab to be processed yesterday. They're also all the rolls I shot while I was away (-1 which I forgot was still in a camera). That's 20 rolls in total, incase you can't do the maths. I have a lot of scanning ahead of me. I hate scanning. It's the most boring thing to do with any kind of photography and it's also really fiddly and annoying.

I'm excited to see the photos though.

This is the best Christmas pressie I got this year:





It's a Zeiss Ikonta 35 522/24 with a Tessar (!!) lens and synchro compur shutter for those of you in the know. It's really sexy it was this boils down to for those of you not in the know!

It's almost in immaculate condition and this particular model (which has the best lens and shutter of the ones produced) is post WWII and produced between 1948-1953. The first roll I shot with it is amongst that lot up there ^^.

What was the best Christmas pressie you got this year?
(it doesn't have to be an actual thing).

Oops! I almost forgot Malloreigh's set finally went up today. We shot that set a year ago! I am really proud of it, and it reminds me how much I love that girl's company and I selfishly can't wait until she comes back this way.

Oh my! that is a sexy camera! mmmhmmm.

Oddly, the best pressie was a very nice electric toothbrush... practical and boring, but needed. Nobody in my life comprehends the photo-sickness enough to get me the things that I really want. *sigh* I just have to get them for myself. smile

Oh and I do love the Malloreigh set. I like your soft pastel, pink and grey match processing for her as well. very nice. oh and my current favorite shot is #56.

cheers!

My best christmas gift was a wüsthof chef's knife. I was also given a knife sharpener that was my grandfathers - a family heirloom of sorts.

Such a great set. I think I love the second to last one for some reason. It's just so strong.

Any time you need to talk you should call me. I thought of calling you but all I have is your home # and I don't want to disturb you. Hopefully you still have mine. xox

The new toy is awesome!!! Congrats!!!

I didn't get a cool xmas gift from anybody so I had to go buy myself one, and being alittle bit selfish I bought myself two very cool gifts (see below)



and I bought myself another piece of German firearms perfection for my collection.

Great looking set!!! I really like the 11th picture in and the 6th picture from the end.

It's the first one... Im so chuffed that Wody is at into you now cause he will be working it and everyone can see just how amazing he is!

Tom has gone for about a year, but if he gets a good job then he won't be coming back... I feel like everyone is moving on and i'm just standing still. Everyone keeps saying "oh, but you can visit him", but you know how fucking expensive it is to fly half way around the world... i just want to tell them all to fuck off. Ooops, rant attack!

I'm going to go look at the set now. Love you x
