Description
I had to jump through god knows how many hoops to get this pic. The people in the store were nearly trying to throw me out due to the camera slung around my neck and the fact I wanted to take a picture of this gorgeous instrument. It wasn't until I was able to get a word in to explain that I was a student that they calmed down. Even then they were more than a little cold.Also come to find out my friend Drew (who was with me) had slighted some of the employees working there in the past. Thanks, Drew.
Still, the hassle was well worth it. I love old things like this. They show so much character. Every nick, scratch, dent, crack and splinter has a story behind it.

I'm in a tafe course and we had to do film stuff first up too. I loved it; but digital is a lot easier i think.

I don't care how many times someone explains to me the chemical process in how the film develops... There's something magical about watching the picture "appear" before your eyes.
Tho agreed, digital is sooo much easier...

Wonderful photo. I love black and white photos, keep it up! Yes I am sure it was well worth it. You know my violin is probably older than me and sometimes I do wonder how it got some of the scratches and dints.
