Six-20 Brownie C with Bluebells and Clematis.
I've picked up a few older cameras recently in various junk shops so I thought I would put them to good use.
I have added a textured layer to give it a bit of a vintage look.
All feedback is welcome, good or bad and thanks for looking.
D700, 80-200mm, 1/200 sec, F/2.8, iso 200.

7 commentsVery nice.!!! one of my first cameras when I was living in Europe as a kid.
A fantastic still life study.
Gary,
I too had one of these so this brings back fond memories of a time when photography was "hard work".
What a great still life concept, Gary!! And the vintage feel is very well rendered, easy to overdo it, but you got it right!
WOW, this one almost slipped by me, Gary. This is very cool. The folks over at the APUG (analog photographers user group) would love this old Brownie. As a sad side to the scene is of course the giant slide Kodak has taken over the years from the leader in photography to one of the lower runs of the ladder now. Of course with the introduction of the iPhones the other digital groups are not grossing sales like they did 10 years ago either......just all part of the photography life cycle change.
Love this little nostalgic scene.......
....as a side note I gave 4 old cameras, Brownie included, to my niece and she has a small growing camera museum on display in her home now.......
Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate the feedback.

Very nice still life. I really like the compositiona and the colors. This is the first camera I had any contact with. My mother used one for several years.
