The Mighty VUWS

The little Vivitar Ultra Wide & Slim has accounted for a disproportionate share of the photographs I have made in the last ten years.  Partly that is because the camera's diminutive size and light weight make it so easy to stuff in a pocket on the way out the door.  Beyond that, however, the radical wide angle lens also encourages more boldness in subject selection.  There is also the satisfaction of getting dramatic results from such a simple-seeming instrument.

Notes to self:

• Remember to fully rewind the film before opening the camera back.
• Consider "lemons to lemonade" spin.
