_DSC3193_woman with my Yashica 635.jpg

dull,lifeless overcast day with gray skies

This nice woman and her friend were VERY interested in the Yashica 635 Twin Lens Reflex I was using, in addition to my Nikon D2x, 45-P, and 70-300 VR lenses. Both of them were absolutely fascinated by this "old camera"...both said that they had never even SEEN this kind of a camera before. I gave each of them a little bit of a chance to hold it, to focus it, and to try the flip-up magnifier. I took two frames of the second woman holding it, and she cooperated with a spontaneous wink and a pretty realistic grasping of the focusing knob...made her look like she knew how to use the camera! SOOC JPEG, Nikon D2x, downsized.
