Those are great photos. All my pix from that era were taken using a 110 camera and can barely make out what is going on.

I had one of those for a while. My wife bought me a Pentax K1000 for Christmas in 1980. As I've scanned pictures (1660 pictures so far but only 3 years worth), I can see how my ability to take pictures got much (much, much) better

Great camera, by the way. I still have it but haven't used it in ages. Damned rugged.
