Things To Do While Your Rolleiflex Is Away Being Repaired #1

For those of you who follow this blog you probably know that Rollei died in the weekend and is now away being repaired (hopefully), So I thought I would start a “Things to do while your Rolleiflex is away being repaired” series until it comes back (again hopefully fixed).

Make Jewellery Out of Broken Clocks

I have been looking around Op Shops for ages trying to find props for future photo shoots and finally found an old wind up clock to pull apart and turn into jewellery for a  Steampunk shoot. The leather came from another Op Shop purchase of an old belt.

The Day Rollei Died

Sorry to say I have been a bit quiet of late but unfortunately my Rolleiflex decided to up and die on me. Its currently away hopefully being repaired (fingers crossed).

This is probably the shot where it happened.

I will keep you informed on how it is going… Time to do some more experimentation with digital while its away 🙂

Fort Balance At Night

10 minute exposure at Fort Balance. This is the last shot Rollei took before having a bit of a malfunction which meant the 20 minute exposure didn’t come out 😦 Might be time to send Rollei away for a bit of a service.

Playground Rocking Horse

I found this out the back of a motel in Lower Hutt… It was on a lean in front of a pile of broken wood… Unfortunately the light was super bright so I will have to go back sometime to get some better shots.

Zoo Poo

At the Giraffe talk at the Zoo… Apparently the smell of the stored poo was a bit much for some…
