Distorted Selfie

"Nikon EM Test"

 

On May 31 or June 1, I don’t know which, I bought a Nikon EM camera that had the original lens and original case at the JOWO event in the old Taichung City Train Station. JOWO is a massive vendor event for vintage and unique items for sale.

 

I loaded up the camera with some expired film from 2007 and waited for a day to shoot the roll, which was a 24 exposures roll, but I always managed to squeak out about 27 exposures.

 

I decided to shoot the roll of film after my class on Monday afternoon. But my luck was that it was raining that day, which doesn’t really bother me since I enjoy the rain...so I grabbed the camera and walked around campus and took as many photos as I could, which ended up being the whole role.

 

My favorite is definitely the individual walking around the track in the pouring rain. I was standing in a sheltered area away from the rain, but I couldn’t believe the opportunity that presented itself. I took about four pictures of the person walking around the track and one was definitely a keeper, which you see here. Enjoy or not.
