Be Still My Baby Rollei - Nikon D800

            I set up a temporary studio in my living room on Christmas Eve, 2015, as I wanted to take a studio style portrait of my sons. Although I got a decent result in the end the two of them were being quite non-cooperative about the whole thing so there were long periods of time when everything was set up but my sons were nowhere to be seen. So I decided to make use of the set up to shoot this beautiful Automatic Rolleiflex 4x4, better known as the 'baby gray Rolleiflex'. It is probably the most beautiful camera in my little collection. Now if I only I could find someone to develop the weird 127 film so I could actually use it! :)
