This is one of my favorite spots at Fort Worden State Park in Port Townsend, WA. I’m not sure why, except that you are standing on a cement runway that a huge WWI era spotlight ran on out to the edge of a cliff. There you can look (almost) straight down to the beach. I’ve taken this same photo a number of times over the years. These are two that caught my eye as I was working on selecting images for the blog this week.

Haller Fountain and the Ferry Terminal

Haller Fountain in Port Townsend

Both of these were taken on Kodak Tri-X film, but with different cameras. The top one with a Leica M-3 and the bottom with a Holga plastic camera. The Leica is an older camera, but very well made and with an exquite lens. The Holga is a ‘modern’ camera … but cheap, made of plastic with a plastic lens. There are noticeable image quality differences, but both are interesting images. The “lesson” is that it isn’t the camera that makes an interesting photo.
