happiness type 1
Shot with NOMO CAM Happiness | 9.9.23 The NOMO app has an assortment of interesting cameras. Many aren’t worth a second look, some are gimmicky, some, like the half-frame PEN I use for fractured landscapes, are useful. Some can simply be a blast to play with once in awhile.
This is one of those. In 1956 a Chinese company, Tianjian, introduced a simple medium format camera they called Happiness Type 1. The name is a bit cheesy if you ask me, but hey – I like the color.

words from robert adams
In common with many photographers, I began making pictures because I wanted to record what supports hope: the untranslatable mystery and beauty of the world. Along the way, however, the camera also caught evidence against hope, and I eventually concluded that this too belonged in pictures if they were to be truthful and thus useful.

words from ben shahn
It may be a point of great pride to have a Van Gogh on the living room wall, but the prospects of having Van Gogh himself in the living room would put a great many devoted art lovers to rout.
