Raindrops on rushes, by Munlochy this evening.

After the first rumble from above, I thought better of believing the earlier dry forecast for late afternoon onwards. Stayed indoors until rather late, hoping it would ease. Still raining tonight whilst out for a Blip hunt.

Reached the end of the month and finished the spool - unlike those in the cameras used for the previous two months. Hope to finish those off and back-Blip whatever the results are... eventually.

Haven't greatly enjoyed using this old TLR. We haven't bonded. Not helped by finding that the taking lens needs dismantled and cleaned. Unfortunately that was discovered when I was half way through the second of three films used over the month. And it was a while before the exact cause was identified. We'll be going separate ways.

Next month's camera is even older! From the mid 1950's. It's also 6x6, medium format, but one I have used before, and one that I like, despite the haze it has in the viewfinder. Thankfully there's none, or little in the main lens. It does make seeing what's going to be in the picture a bit hit and miss - like looking through a lightly steamed up window.
