Messing Around with the Ricoh GR II

In my never-ending quest for the perfect film camera I recently came across the Ricoh GR II. Since it has the same focal length (28mm) as one of my Fuji prime lenses I decided to sell that lens and bought a used Ricoh GR II. I've been very impressed with this camera and its size & weight (it fits in your pocket) fill the need of a camera I can take with me everywhere. Here are a few shots I took while walking around downtown Memphis. So far so good!

April 4th, 1968

As a Memphian its hard to not go a day without thinking about Martin Luther King and the Civil Rights Movement. Not only destroyed a great man but a great city as well. And Memphis is still trying to recover from that moment 49 years ago today.
