On the way to work this morning. Usually I’m annoyed when the camera decides that a scene needs flash, but once in a rare while it does yield a more interesting picture.

The weather was lousy today. I didn’t want to take the camera out in the wind and rain, so I fixed myself a snack instead.

The view from my porch shortly before sunset. All those nice feathery clouds filling the sky disappeared as the sun approached the horizon, and the sunset was disappointingly lackluster.

Kodak Retina II, ca. 1949. Historically, most Kodak cameras are little better than junk. The one exception is the series of Retina cameras begun in 1934, solidly-built cameras with good lenses manufacutured by Nagel Camerawerks in Germany.
I found this one at a garage sale some years back for $5. The rangefinder is broken, but otherwise the camera still works. It’s a small camera, pocketable if your jacket has large pockets, but surprisingly heavy. I carried it around for a few weeks to grab pictures while out on my bike. Although it took good pictures, the weight got to be annoying, and I retired it.
