Brownie Bullet

Vintage Camera: Brownie Bullet
[Taken 24 January 2011 | iPhone 4 | Instagram filter: Earlybird]

This week’s photo would have been by the Brownie Bullet, rather than of the Brownie Bullet, had the weather not turned nasty late this afternoon. I decided that the drive to Taylor Photo wasn’t worth risking my safety — not over eight exposures of 127 film.

Just remember that the photos you’ll see next week will have been taken by this camera.

Playing around with lighting and posing ideas for this year’s Christmas Portrait, and reminding myself of the details of using my lighting kit. Yes, I know the strobe umbrella is visible in the reflection; I think it adds to the charm.
