I figured it was time to go back to the camera that first got me into photography! Today I took a picture of an empty kombucha bottle and its shadow on a pale wooden table in our apartment, using my dad's old Olympus OM-1 MD. He bought this camera when he was in college and took it with him when he studied in Poland. It's hard to believe that this camera is still in one piece! It has survived rock climbing without a rope with crazy revolutionaries, backpacking through Europe, multiple plane rides to multiple American states, more than a decade of storage, and being dropped way too many times from my clumsy fingers. The thing is a tank.
