Asunto: [Leica] Childhood Idyl


I decided to take my Zorki 4 out for a walk this weekend.  Quirky, klunky
camera, kind of hard to focus when the diopter lever decides to move itself
when it feels like it.  I struggled with it for a while, took a bunch of
pictures that I'm not very pleased with.

But when I came upon this scene, mmmmm.  A Summicron would have been
objectively "better," but there's something about the quality of the 1930s
Sonnar design that suited the subject.

Zorki 4, 50/2 Jupiter-8, 1/60 at about f/4.5, Fuji Reala 400.
