Only Photograph What You Love

Yesterday I took a long walk down to the Empire State Plaza and it was warmer than I thought it was going to be! I ended up having to take a quick cold shower when I arrived home to cool down and wash away all the sweat. Ick! 
 
I ended up taking my new-to-me Yashica Mat LM twin lens camera with me to get a few snapshots. I feel like I ended up overexposing most of them... but we'll see when I get them developed. 
 I definitely got quite a few double takes walking down to the Plaza. It's not really everyday that someone dresses like they're straight out of the 1950s here.

I'll make sure to post whatever photos come out well that I took on my long walk! Hopefully at least one comes out alright.

  1. Yes! Film photography with a dual lens! My husband is obsessed! We have several of his works using a dual lens on our walls. Glad to see someone else is into it too.

    1. What I really wanted was a Rollei but they were a bit too much $$$ for me. So I found an ad for this camera on Craigslist and looked up reviews. Seems like a good camera of comparable quality to the Rollei I wanted, so I got it! Here's hoping my photos turn out well
