I am back! It's been a while since my last upload here, I'm excited to be back, as I have a lot of photos to choose from, this year has been really intense and full of adventures.

I've decided to restart with some of the most recent shots, from the October hike in the High Tatras, just over the border in beautiful Slovakia.

It was a memorable and emotional weekend for several reasons. But that's probably not a place to talk about it. What's relevant here is the story of my Contax. The last time I used it before that weekend was also in Tatras, almost a year before. That was when I realized it had an issue with the shutter, not working properly at short exposure times. I took the camera to my favourite serviceman in Crocow full of hope. Unfortunately, the problem proved to be more complicated than he expected at first. After several attempts he couldn't find a solution, as weeks and months passed. I am pretty sure that any other serviceman would simply give up and move on to other work and easier money, but not him. I was astonished when after almost a year he texted me with the great news, his persistence and passion for the job resulted in resolving the issue! And there it was, my dear G2 ready for another adventure, just in time to be tested in the beautiful Tatras.
