I'd been thinking about getting a good compact sized camera for my trip at the end of the month. Over the weekend, I exchanged a couple of e-mails with e.ku. When asked about the cameras he used, he sent me a link to his SEAEK series, photographs taken when he traveled through South East Asia with Lomo LC-A and Olympus Stylus Epic. His images are just simply beautiful.

Big thanks to e.ku! I decided to dig up my Yashica T4 Super, a point and shoot camera, and give it another try. I bought the T4 years ago after reading a few reviews about how great it was. I only put a few rolls of film through it because I had such a hard time framing with a small viewfinder. Yes, it was easy to just blame a camera.

I dropped in a roll Provia into the T4 and put it in my pocket Monday morning. For a few days, I took random shots on the way to work and back. When I got the film back from the lab today, it was a great surprise. The slides came out much better than I expected. Well, you be the judge.

I’ll continue to post more images from Carl Schurz Park shot over the weekend in the next couple days. For now, I’m just a bit too excited about rediscovering the T4.
