Graffiti! by Kayana

Graffiti!

Kayana

A couple of you showed interest in my old Zorki film camera well I finally finished off a roll of film (Kodak 200 ColorPlus) and got my prints back today. I only scanned this in at 300DPI as I've only got access to a multifunction printer/scanner right now but I feel it captures the colours from the film reasonably well. I may try a higher DPI later.

I just went for a wander through the local town centre at the weekend and stumbled across this graffiti down by the river and thought it could be a good test for the lens and camera. I found focusing with the rangefinder and the tiny window showing focus within the viewfinder took some getting used to!

My biggest problem was over-exposing the shot. I think a few times I knocked the aperture ring without noticing as there's no "clicks" on this lens.

I do like the results and the colours from this combination, would like to dabble more in film when I have the funds :)
