my april 12m.o.f.

April is the best month because it is my birthday month! And this year I was gifted 3 cameras from Ukraine! I am originally from the USSR and have been on a hunt for old Soviet cameras to add to my collection and am so thrilled to add these beauties!

I received 3 cameras: Fed 3, Zenit ET and a Zenit E and also got a bulk loader and film :)

Our family also adopted a new furry family member and are enjoying her so much! I’m sure you’ll be seeing her more often in my photos as she is a majestic queen.

For this month’s challenge I used the Zenit ET with some bulk rolled Kodak Vision 250D I bought from a fellow film photographer!

I have never used a Helios lens before and I think it’s pretty evident from my photos. I was feeling pretty confident then realized the lens is a bit different that I was used to and became worried everything would be out of focus. But alas, only a few shots came out blurry and overall I’m happy with how this roll came out and am excited to try the bulk loaded film in the future!

Again, these were developed and scanned by my friends over at Tacoma Photo Center.
