How about some cool mom pics?

My mom traveled around the world in 1967-1968 with her first husband. From Paris they drove a Citroen 2CV via Turkey, Iran, and Afghanistan, all the way to India, where they sold the 2CV to buy boat tickets to Singapore. There my mom bought a Nikomat FT (which I still have and occasionally use), which she used to take Kodachromes in the other places they visited - Bali, Cambodia, Laos, and Japan. I got a V500 in 2009 for the express purpose of scanning the Kodachromes, and having the scanner is actually part of what encouraged me to pick up film photography again.

I wish she'd had the Nikomat in Iran and Afghanistan :sigh:
