My First Best Picture

I had bought my diana about 2 weeks before i went on the annual school trip to france and i hadnt used it much, so i bought 3 rolls of ISO 400 Lomography 120 film and thought i’d take a few shots of paris and my friends…

The camera made what was probably the worst (and coldest) french trip of my life a whole lot better than it would have been without it, and the pictures came out great too!!

We stayed for 4 days, and visited two museums each day….a wild time we had….
One of those museums was the louvre, and of course we had to queue outside first. While we were waiting around my friend asked if he could try using my diana, at first i wasnt too sure because they’re nothing like compact digital cameras, so i set the aperture and focus and gave it to him. Me and 3 of my other friends then grouped together to pose for the photo with the pyramid in the background and he took it, when he gave the camera back i thought “i havn’t tried a double exposure yet!!!” So i pointed the lens at the pyramid without thought and took the second shot!!

I must say it was possibly the best thing to come out of my diana since i got it!!
