Used your insect hypnotizer filter? You're da Bomb with your micro macro's. @ f6.3 you had to be positioned perfectly to get the focus and DOF to work for this.

Snap -- crackle -- POP !

Don't you just love it when you hear the snap before the boom? Wonderful photo, and congrats on the ribbon!

Sweet item. I never had one of these, though I loved my older models.

It was a grand idea to crop this part out of what must have been a taller shot. Congrats on a catchy image, and your new blue.

I had one of these too, with the flip up rangefinder focus on top. It shot a lot of interesting photos for me. I wish that I had been able to keep more of the photos, but life gets in the way sometimes.

This is a good mix of characters. I can visualize a news photog running around with one of these and back to his typewriter at the office to type up the story while the negs dry. This is a photo with a story in it, which seems to be true of most of your images.

A little TOO cheap, I suppose.

I see what looks like a little diagram at the upper left, just over the film path? Is that directions for loading it? That's a strange camera. Even if you unspool the film and put it on the left, how would you know how far to advance it for the next shot?
Can't wait to see the pix. : )
On second thought, maybe it had power wind to a spool on the left that's missing, and the knurled knob is for rewinding the film into the cartridge when it is exposed. I don't see an advance lever of any kind. Look in the top of the pocket on the left for a drive for a take up spool. Maybe you can make one from the spool out of a roll of film if it's missing.

I love pancakes, and most any other kind of bread. I never thought of trying to bake them, or take a close up photo of them LOL. You are making me want to taste these. Got a recipe?
