while shooting some sheep............(leave it!!) i saw another smudger with an interesting looking camera, not looked it up so i don't know if its an old one or a new retro one, shot with 18-150mm ef-m
I am not going to comment on the sheep thing, I mean, whatever floats your boat. But it looks to be a Rolleiflex 6x6 twin lens reflex film camera from back in the day. A nice piece of kit. It's good to see people still using this sort of gear. Gary
This camera is way too cool to leave on a shelf gathering dust, note how she is cradling it in her hand, that would be because after a while weight of the camera with that skinny little strap she has on it cuts into your neck and makes it ache. A small price to pay for using a unique camera, This image I have put up is a quick snap of my Mamiya C3 with it's 80mm lenses, I also have the 65mm and 135mm lenses. when I have taken it out I have had a few people come up to me and want to know what it was. I overcome the weight problem around my neck by putting a padded strap off of a bag on it.
Caladina, I must ask why was you there, was it buy one as a lawnmower for the backyard. They do mulch, manure and eat the grass down at the same time.
in london the Woolmen have the right to drive sheep across london bridge, its one of those old laws etc look up "woolmen sheep drive" the actual drive of the sheep was pretty much barriered off to one side walk of the bridge as traffic was still flowing but the market area was better for smudges The boss was there too, The Master, worshipful of the woolmen in this image it looks like the guy with the bike is droopling over the gown with his tounge out
Few more from the day, not the drive i was expecting, thought it would have been more open with the bridge closed off, not like we havent got loads of them in that stretch of the thames
A nice country feel for a big city, I have seen on You Tube about some of these old laws on London Bridge. Down here in Tasmania it is not uncommon to come across large flocks of sheep being moved from one paddock to another on our country roads, especially in the midlands of the state.
