Carrol,

That is too COOL! I bet you will get Fred's vote for sure this week!

The lighting looks nice and I like the reflection, too.

Good luck!

Very nicely done! I've still got my Miranda Sensorex and a set of lenses. This looks like an F or maybe a G?
Wanna buy a macro lens with bellows?

Fantastic positioning of the camera, the angle really shows her off! I love the starbust on the dial, this really adds character to the shot.

Steve,
You're too kind ! I almost always use natural light for my shots, so I'm not real experienced with studio lighting. This is one light and a reflector.
And $10 to the person who can guess what the camera is sitting on to get the reflection.

Thanks Danny!
I liked the angle, too. Glad you think it works.
Yeah, I noticed the starburst when I downloaded my shots onto the computer. A pleasant bonus.

My first SLR was a Miranda. The body looked very much like this one. Thanks for the memory. I like the glint on the top left corner. Well done.

Cheers,
Alex

Somebody had to enter an old camera photo

And no one could've done a better job.

An awesome entry,
