oh, christmas tree...

i was thinking about how adorable our family tree is... so i took a picture with my early christmas present (rolleiflex 3.5) to preserve it.

  1. Rollei! Merry Christmas to you! That is a great Christmas present. I love the 160 fuji film. That was my first roll of medium format film I shot, only a few months ago.

  4. Lovely tree! I always like trees more when they feel more like a family tree than a fashion statement.

  7. I didn't know what a rolleiflex was until I Googled. I've seen that before, but didn't know the name of it. Thanks to you, I've learned something new today. Your Christmas tree is beautiful! Love the shot!

  9. adam--- it's not so hard, it's just a little tricky since the image is flipped when you view it.
