All Of The Sudden...

...I thought it would be cool if I'd learn to make photos. Well, to be true, the story goes a little beyond that.

My brother is 16. I am 25. In spite of the fact that I'm much older, as I'm going to prove further, brother is much more talented. He is passionate with astronomy, photography and astronomic photography. You may think that he likes physics and maths, but no, I think he likes stars more likely in that poetical manner, as he's always been a man (aaa... boy...) of letters.

So, I've seen some photos that he made and started buzzing that I wanted too, to learn photography...

Brother suggested that I needed a camera. He went further by advicing me to let him handle the things, his own way. Also cautioned me that it might take some time.

So I equiped myself with lots of patience and weeks passed ... But one day, he came up with a SH (seccond hand) Zenith camera, slightly different from his. (He knows people in the business ;-)

It was basicaly ok, and costed only 700.000 ROL (which is approx. $20). But I had one big problem with it's light meter, that was placed inside the camera. I looked through the lens, I just couldn't see it (I suffer from a slight short-sightedness).

We decided to switch cameras; he gave me his, and he got stucked with mine. I liked this one better because the light meter, allthough still incorporated, was placed on the outer-side.

To be continued...
