Another (1982) Olympus Trip 35 in "Oasis Orange" Leather is setting off on a spectacular Alpine adventure... this time to Herisau, Switzerland ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ“ธโœจ

Herisau is the capital of the Swiss canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden, nestled among the rolling green hills and dramatic mountain scenery of northeastern Switzerland ๐Ÿ”๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ. Itโ€™s the kind of place that seems made for film photography... traditional Swiss architecture, flower-filled balconies, church spires, and breathtaking landscapes in every direction ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ“ธ.

Herisau is often considered a gateway to the beautiful Appenzell Region, one of the most picturesque parts of the country. Here, visitors find postcard-perfect villages, dairy farms producing Switzerlandโ€™s famous cheeses, and panoramic mountain views that stretch across the Alps ๐Ÿง€๐Ÿ„โ›ฐ๏ธ. Camera and Cheese... can't get better than that!

A short journey away lies the iconic Santis mountain, one of the most recognisable peaks in eastern Switzerland. From its summit, on a clear day, you can see across six countries... an incredible reminder of just how special this corner of Europe really is ๐ŸŒโœจ.

For international visitors, Herisau offers an authentic Swiss experience away from the larger tourist cities... a place of tradition, craftsmanship, hiking trails, fresh mountain air, and stunning scenery throughout the seasons ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ‚โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒธ.

This Olympus Trip 35 is heading somewhere truly magical... where every winding road, mountain pasture, and sunrise over the Alps feels worthy of a frame of film ๐ŸŽž๏ธ๐Ÿ“ท.

Uf Wiederluege, Herisau! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญโœจ
("Goodbye" in Swiss German.)

Another Early Edition (1973) Olympus Trip 35 is setting off on a new adventure...this time to Woking, UK ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ“ธโœจ

Woking is a thriving town in the county of Surrey, located just 25 minutes from central London yet surrounded by some of Englandโ€™s most beautiful countryside ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿš†. It offers a wonderful blend of modern life, history, and green open spaces, making it an ideal home for a classic film camera.

Woking has a rather unique claim to fame ...it is closely associated with The War of the Worlds, the famous science-fiction novel by H. G. Wells. In fact, visitors can find a striking Martian Tripod sculpture in the town centre, celebrating the story that helped shape modern science fiction ๐Ÿ‘ฝ๐Ÿ“šโœจ. Nearby, the acclaimed The Lightbox gallery and museum showcases art, history, and local culture ๐ŸŽจ.

Just beyond Woking, you'll find the stunning Surrey Hills, with woodland trails, heathland, and picturesque villages perfect for long walks and timeless film photographs ๐ŸŒ„๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ“ธ.

For international visitors, Woking offers a wonderful snapshot of modern England ... historic, diverse, green, and well-connected, with a few unexpected surprises along the way.

This Olympus Trip 35 is heading somewhere filled with stories... from Martian invasions to peaceful countryside sunsets... and plenty of opportunities to capture life on film ๐ŸŽž๏ธโœจ.

At the heart of the city stands the magnificent Cardiff Castle, a landmark with nearly 2,000 years of history packed into its walls. Just a short stroll away you'll find elegant Victorian arcades, independent shops, cafรฉs, and some of the best people-watching opportunities in Britain โ˜•๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿ“ธ.

Down at Cardiff Bay, old docklands have been transformed into a bustling waterfront filled with restaurants, theatres, public art, and the striking Wales Millennium Centre ๐ŸŽญ๐ŸŒŠ. It's a fantastic place to capture reflections, architecture, and the changing Welsh weather on film.

Sport is woven into Cardiff's identity too. The city is home to the world-famous Principality Stadium, where Welsh rugby fans create one of the greatest sporting atmospheres anywhere in the world ๐Ÿ‰โค๏ธ. On match days, the whole city seems to come alive.

๐Ÿ‘€ SSSHHHH... YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!

I've been busy adding some new accessories to the website and, as always, my Facebook followers get the first heads-up before anyone else.

Just added:

๐Ÿ“ธ Sunpak GX17 flash units
๐Ÿ“ธ Genuine yellow filters for black & white photography
๐Ÿ“ธ Adjustable quick-release neck straps with red accent details
๐Ÿ“ธ A stunning TP Original black leather half case in like-new condition
๐Ÿ“ธ And perhaps the star of the show... a collector-grade Olympus T20 flash complete with its original box and instructions โ€“ a very rare find in this condition!

Some of these items are one-offs and once they're gone, they're gone. Vintage accessories can often be harder to find than the cameras themselves.

If you've been looking to complete your Olympus Trip 35 outfit, add a little extra functionality, or simply treat yourself to something interesting, they're now live in the accessories section.

As always, thank you for supporting this small business and for helping keep these wonderful cameras and accessories in circulation. โค๏ธ

Another 1980 Olympus Trip 35 Collectors Edition is setting off on a new adventure...this time to Ballynahinch, Northern Ireland๐Ÿ“ธโœจ

Ballynahinch is a charming market town nestled in the heart of County Down, surrounded by rolling green countryside, winding country roads, and some of the most beautiful landscapes on the island of Ireland. Its name comes from the Irish Baile na hInse, meaning โ€œtownland of the island,โ€ a nod to the area's deep Gaelic roots and centuries of history ๐Ÿ“œโœจ.

Ballynahinch is perfectly placed for exploring some of Northern Irelandโ€™s best-loved attractions. A short drive away lies the breathtaking Mourne Mountains, whose granite peaks inspired C.S. Lewis when creating the magical world of Narnia โ›ฐ๏ธ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿ“š. Nearby, visitors can enjoy the peaceful beauty of Strangford Lough, the largest sea lough in the British Isles, rich with wildlife, sailing boats, and stunning coastal views ๐ŸŒŠโ›ต.

The area is also steeped in history, from ancient castles and monastic sites to traditional market towns where life still moves at a gentler pace. For a film camera, it's a dream destination... soft Irish light, stone walls, green fields, and dramatic skies that seem to change by the minute ๐ŸŽž๏ธ๐ŸŒฆ๏ธ๐Ÿ“ธ.

This Olympus Trip 35 is heading somewhere full of warmth, heritage, and spectacular scenery... a place where every country lane seems to lead to another beautiful photograph.

Slรกn go fรณill, Ballynahinch! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ“ธ
