high hopes

This week I have been using a Pentax SLR camera that my dad purchased in the United States in 1980, five years before I was born. This camera captured the moments of his life and early years of my parents marriage, and also young pictures of myself and my brothers. I am interested to see how my photos will come out when they are developed and if I have at all managed to make proper use of the all-manual set-up.

With my wife now pregnant, here I am capturing the early years of my own marriage with the very same equipment. I only hope our kid is as cute as I was...

Whatever happens, it'll find it's way on to a roll of film...and maybe an iPhone just in case...
