Burning love

An happy accident with one of my Fed 3 camera (I have two). This one, after years of works, reach its end; a hole was formed in the second curtain. The first images of the roll are OK, but the last half presents light leaks. I save these two images: a couple that seem to burn in love, and a street artist inflamed by her song. R.I.P. dear Fed 3!

    I treated my Fed... if I had a small hole ...with a marker. which is not too spirited. (pasty), I had a silver one.

    @why-yu I repaired some small holes in this way www.lomography.com/magazine/212016-how-to-repair-the-rubber… (my article), but here the hole is too big...

    This is my second Fed 3 with this problem (the first was the one in the article). I have a third one, this is for now like new. Fed 3, 4 and 5 curtains are less reliable than Zorki 1...6 and Fed 1,2 ones!

    and if you stick a small piece of cloth. and then cover with white glue. of course it doesn't matter if you have another one :)

Como

Country/Region: Italy
Como

As Lake Como shimmers in the shifting light, its still waters mirroring the mountains, you can’t help but slow down. The lake’s magic extends beyond the shore, too. In the back lanes of towns like Bellagio and Varenna, you’ll discover stone chapels, laundry drying, and shaded piazzas that reveal a beauty more lasting than any postcard.
