Many thanks to Karen, Alan & Brian for your nice comments on this image, I really appreciate you all for taking the time to view. It took some 25 shots at different angles to get it right, the time of the day was the main factor in getting the reflection just right. It all paid off as I got first place for this image, I also gained a first place in the 'Work' class (to which I will upload soon). I was awarded the overall winner at our local show. Chriss:)

Very nice. My wife collects old cameras too. Maybe I'll get her to take a picture of them to show you. My father-in-law was showing us some of his antiques and they realized one of them still had undeveloped film in it! It had sat there for almost 30 years without being developed. We were so excited to get them developed cause it was literally a look into the past. Most of them developed just fine except for the last 2, which were over exposed. He loves taking photos of trains and most of the images were taken at an old railway.

Wonderful photo and really fun to view.. It sure is something how cameras have changed. I like the reflections in the table and great job setting it up.

Very nice composition with lovely historical significance. I have my dad's Leica purchased in the early 50s in Germany that still works.
