Yes, it's a PORSCHE...!!! Must've been a posh farmer ;-)

I figure if Lomography teamed up with the guys who made the Zorki, Zenit and FED cameras to build tractors, they'd probably look something like these ;-). I took these shots at a vintage tractor meet in Luxembourg (where I grew up), way back in 1997. I can't remember the details, exactly, but I guess this was one of my first test rolls with my Nikon F50 (but they might have been taken with a Pentax Program A I had back then too — I'm not sure).

    Not your usually Porsche? Like it!!! I'm very much enjoying this Album. It's the kind of thing I would do, so far with cars and firetrucks, but I would shoot tractors too. What I think is even funnier is that you may have used a Pentax Program, I now have two SuperProgram bodies (the US model), so I would shoot this same subject with the same came. It's a small world. ;-)

    @alburnkat: When scanning these negs to upload, I figured it would be the kind of stuff you and @clickiemcpete might dig... ;-) As for Pentax cams, they may be poorer cousins to Nikons and Canons, but I think they're cool. I had both a Program A and a Spotmatic at one stage, and I still shoot regularly with my P50. They're humble, rather unsophisticated machines, but very reliable and they do the job just fine. Great that you like them too!
