I removed the lens from my old broken Prinz Saturn 35mm film camera and managed to mount it on my Panasonic GM1 digital body - not very well and held on with rubber bands!
There is no aperture adjustment so this is the result of the lens 'wide open' - probably much more so than for what the lens was designed.
It's an 'in house' shot - the eating end of the kitchen.
Converted to B&W and sepia toned. It does look an old photo from the 1930s now!

This is my latest Italian dictionary, which is bigger and probably better than its predecessors. But I'm struggling with the idea that it's a pocket dictionary. Only my big winter jacket has a pocket big enough, and I won't be sitting in the park in January pondering translations.
