This is the next camera to be put on Ebay.This is a Rollei Magic which is in near mint condition.As can be seen the oblong lens at the top is a light meter.It is nearly 50 years old and still has a roll of film loaded.
My last camera the Rolleicord was bought by a student studying for a BA in photography at Westminster Uni London so I am very pleased it went to a good home.
It's so nice to be able to sit in the greenhouse (cratch) for a couple of hours and dream of the day I can get a narrowboat.
In the meantime I have just finished reading a book by Sir John Lister-Kaye called At The Waters Edge in which he describes his involvement and observation of wildlife in and around a Loch where he lives in Scotland. He has taken the same circular walk from his home deep in a Scottish glen each day for over 30 years and recorded his findings in a diary from which this book has evolved. It's a good read and takes one away from the daily troubles we all have.
