| Zeiss Ikon, Contina I (d) (526/24-mod), 35mm Camera |
| Straight in at the deep
end for the Contina's first outing - it was taken to Viet Nam without ever
having a test film put through it. The next three shots illustrate the completely

More or less the standard sunset shot with the bulk of the image under exposed, resulting in completely silhouetted foreground and horizon. This is a scene across the River Mekong as it winds through Ho Chi Minh City, the river is heavily industrialized and a rather muddy hue during the day, but manages to look quite enticing here. |

These two girls illuminated by the light from a grass fire caught my attention as I was walking back from watching the sunset. The exposure was a wild guess, but worked out about right.
