Пельмени Сибирские


Of course I overreact on the word Siberian, but today was (more or less) the start of the cold season, so after a "cool" walk I had some Pelmeni Sibirskie. Nice!

Смирновская Водка


And then I read the label on the back.
"Produced for the Smirnoff co., Lakeside Drive, London UK.
 IN ITALY "

На здоровье - no, sorry: cin-cin!

Красный Октябрь


Red October.

Not 1917, nor the "Hunt..." film, but, very modest, my favourite breakfast. With espresso, of course.
And looking at lovely little Алёнка it can't be thàt unhealthy...

1954 Москва 2



Yes - the Москва 2 will also go to Siberia.
Because it does fit in the pocket, to keep it warm. Because it is 6x9. And because the CRF does work, and that's a first!


Impossible to handle it with gloves but who cares - 
just look at the monster

Фотоэкспонометр


I will definitely nòt be "guessing the light" in Siberia with this beautiful aluminum фотоэкспонометр. 
Early sixties (or late fifties?) and at Цена 1 руб. 35 коп. (About 4 rolls of film, the Ленинград-2 was 6 руб. but that was in the eighties.)
Easy to handle with gloves, too.

Фотокор

 Yes, I am the proud owner of a working ± 1941 Fotokor. And would love to take it to Siberia.  But with only 4 sheet-holders (digitalics: that means only 4 pictures!) it probably isn't the right choice.
 К сожалению!
