Rollei 35 - one year

2021 in one flickr album here.

I am quite surprised that I managed to shoot twenty rolls in the Rollei 35 this year (one is still to be developed). The output is not as pleasing as in former years, but it is still fun to use the little Xanthippe.
 
Cute and uncomplicated, yes, but at times not so nice. Overall maybe a too harsh verdict, but I like colourful metaphors.

Edit: I am of course blaming the camera for my mistakes;-)

Simple can be very frustrating, I grant you. I admire your discipline - I take mine out only when I can't be bothered with anything larger.
 
I used a Leica IIIf with 50mm Elmar for a year. Then I used a Leica M2 with 35mm Summaron for a year until I added a 90mm Elmarit. It was easy to restrict myself to a one camera, one lens outfit at the time: it was all I had! That made it real easy. No equipment decisions at all.
