a quick getaway...


While waiting at the bus station in Bled on the morning of our departure, we heard a distinctive clop, clop, clop, heading straight in our direction.

Quick, get the Graflex out for a photo!

Now "quick" and "Graflex" are pretty much mutually exclusive. By the time the camera was out of the bag, bed dropped down, lens pulled out, finder extended, darkslide removed, shutter cocked, aperture set, and rangefinder focused, that darned horse and buggy was already flying by!

Bled, Slovenia, September 2011.

Graflex Century Graphic, 105mm f/3.7 Ektar, Ilford HP5.
