Honored Life camera
The camera "Start". Here it is, in the top picture. Old reflex camera, the lens "Helios 44". Heavy metal housing, durable. Fishka- of film cutter, built-in. Let's say, took several shots and still frames in stock 20-25.Nu not be the same because of several shots the entire film ... not taking the tape out of the machine (without risking to light), cutter-PPase! Balance then a piece of footage on the developing unit. What? It was. Cherished film.
A case is! The skin is stitched strong coarse thread carefully, the inner surface - black, suede. Name (as they say now - logo) squeezed out large and clear. In short, when you take in hand - you have a thing!

Our honored pensioner on vacation. But many digital "Soap" More can wipe his nose. People do, do it for the people with love, efficiently and reliably. Therefore, the machine still works. The repair was a time - worn mount blinds. When he brought to the studio master briefly looked at me as if appreciated. I called another. They are about something whispered briefly, then said that it is possible to fix, but the thing is old, may break again, saying there are no guarantees, but only hemorrhagic solid, or better yet, if I'm selling them the "junk" parts, or was changed to "Zenit". Of course I refused. Then it was done on the machine. It's not even that I suspected a trick, is not that the house had been, and TTL and ET ... Just "Start" has been and remains for me a full member of the family, our chronicler. With him gone my whole life, how could I sell it? With him I went the whole life of my father. He bought it for their labor in the 59 or 60 year. My father taught me the basics of photography, for which I am immensely grateful to him. In our old albums - the story of my family. And not only mine. The country's history (What? Too snobbish? But it is.) When I once again revise these albums, honestly, I want to go back to childhood. There, where the parents were happy and cheerful, where the key to the apartment under the rug and lamp over the entrance to the entrances. Just as a child is always good, so you always want to go back to childhood, in his youth. If someone did not, you really try menyaponyat I not out of malice.
These pictures-life as it is, without embellishment. See.
How did it start? Yes, like that's it. These frames appear.
The first photo taken by my father. These pictures of the last century. After the Great Patriotic War took place 10-15 years. Here they are, yesterday's boys, children of war:
the end of the 50s. Even adults have carefree and confident in the bright future. Almost all dressed alike, shod. Not all that well, but still not a war, thank God! No one envies no one. And all are friends regardless of nationality. And still do not know that in old age they will betray. I do not betray, just spit on them as something bothersome. And everything that they worked so hard to build and taught called "scoop." But they "IM" believed. If they knew then ...
And here's another! While the country is gaining momentum but I want to live now and want something beautiful and something to show off. And here they are, mods - older brothers. "The pipes from the ship, fashionable at any time of the year»:
The city is not a shame in such suits to go out to the movies or to a dance club, eh distributes the sea!
Here is a flavor! This is our way, in a big way. Guys! Without bryulikov ears, no lipstick, no cutesy not glamorous, but just men.
And like a girl wants and what it wants to surprise them. With what? Yes, the same photographs. Make a night, in the light of the red light district. And it was nice to dramatically cut fotorezakom. With such artistic "patterned" edges. Who is in these photos? Peers, our expectant mothers. His eyes filled with laughter and fun. More they have no anxiety for children and the first maternal love. Until just youth and carelessness:
Soon we have a new camera. & Quot; Moscow 5 & quot ;. Handsome, with a sliding lens, unlike the "Start" shirokoplёnochny, film without perforation. Their conditions and their fun with the film development film:
Bought Adapter Rings, other lenses.
Start experimenting with retouch, Macro .:
Then the first "staged" photocomposition:
And the first pictures taken on printed paper:
I still think that the embossed or matte photo paper better. Here are brighter and more juicy pictures on it. None of this brilliant, distracting gloss. But I'm not about that.
Why am I telling you everything. Almost everyone has old old photo. There are pictures on which zapechetleny bright moments of life. Commemorative meeting. Memories. Pleasant and not so. This is key in the pantry of our memory, our life. Look, remember, share ...
Here's an example:
Semyon Budyonny, in person. What a meeting with the voters?
Or:
It is 1977, Sochi. "Admiral Nakhimov" ... still afloat. Who could have imagined that just
9 years later he was gone.
I do not want to end a sad note, so a couple of shots in the end. But this is a color photo! This is the other colors of life. And even I (the last photo) is already pondering what is in the pictures.
