Shots with an ancient Zenit S

[Mirrorman]

I've lately taken up photography after wanting to do it for 4 years. Found an old Zenit S in my dad's garage, loaded it up with a slide film and after some cross processing this is what came out. I'm sorry for the quality, the prints were fine, but when I got the CD, I died a little inside. Here's what I could salvage. I even started a blog where I post a picture per day - Am I Indie yet?

Thanks, It's a seaside sunset with a small fault, since I dropped the camera. But I think that's what makes it so good.

When I was a kid, I used to have a Cosmorex SE, which was also sold labeled as a Zenit.That camera had avery bad door latch that tended to get snagged on the neck strap, thus popping the door wide open! On your sunset shot, the accidental fogging of the film perforations actually looks quite neat!

Appreciate the kind words.
