All Hail the Argus Seventy-Five!

Okay, I didn't really get the film wound tight enough, but the first three pictures came out great. The subsequent photos got progressively worse, not to mention the fact that the photo developer apparantly didn't cue in on the fact that medium format film isn't printed out as a 4X6. I guess the giant spool with 120 printed on it didn't catch their attention. Oh, well. I was just happy to find out the camera worked.

I took the Argus Seventy-five out for a West Texas excursion one day and stopped at the Odessa Meteor Crater. I expected to see a giant hole in the ground. I saw a giant hole in the ground filled with cacti and mesquite. I was a little disappointed, but it occurred to me that that sort of thing happens after a few millenia and since I'd driven all that way, I took the pictures anyway.
