Constructing a wood deck in Woodpecker Wood would seem to be a risk venture, so any sympathy I have has to be with the Picidae. Very nice little fellow and so is the bird. The Lomo shot is beautifully excecuted. Reminds me of some of my favourite Rangefinder efforts. The drunken blur and boke is perfectly rendered.

My dear mate, you do understand !
Incidentally, following your lead, I am looking to buy a well preserved fully functional Zorki I. Got any tips for me as to a good source....preferrrably away from eBay ?
Besides, my poor father had it, and nothing but. The very first camera I had in my hands.

I have a Zorki S which functions perfectly and almost minty (or will be with a minor clean up). Ebay is the realistic place to buy these tiny gems. Fact is you can buy 2-3 and as long as they're all same model end up with a single Frankenstien'd beauty. They seem to sell here from £10-£60 depending on model and condition. Maybe they're easier to buy in Europe, I dunno. Very well constructed on the whole. I'm in process of rebuilding mine after a clean up and trying to find a nice 50mm Jupiter in Leica mount. With these camera's you really do know how decent a photographer you can be. Expensive modern gear used P&S style can mask a huge amount of incompetence. Finally Pete, you can rediscover the source: that stream of pure creativity running from papa's gene's into your eye and shutter finger. Sounds perfect for you.

All right, I need some education here. The first two shots are great.

The second one is perhaps, just perhaps, a tad blurry. What am I missing?

Lomography, my friend, that's what that is.........try to say "lobotomy-tomography" quick....there you go......much easier than "colonoscopy", right ?
