Hetzbach

is a village at the Odenwald Railway which crosses the Oldenwald region from Eberbach to Darmstadt, or vice versa ;) The single track line was built from the late 1860s to early 1880s and has some tunnels and 3 viaducts (1 will be shown later).

The former station building here is now in private ownership and the railway has only a socalled "Haltepunkt" (stop point). The roof of the Gründerzeit(?) building was made in the traditional style of the region.

Simple cheap silver colored plastic 35 mm camera with a single element fixfocus lens and curved film plane like a billion others, but with an Olympus-mju-style "clam shell" design, haha, Very conveniant, no settings at all and of course no batteries. Life can be so easy, sometimes.... Long expired original Agfa Leverkusen Vista 400 developed in homebrewed C-41, 17 minutes at 22 °C room temperature with agitation about every 15 seconds.

Thank you very much, Haar. The camera has no name. The only writing is "28 mm optical lens", haha. What a luck that it has an optical lens and not an acoustical.

Oh, one of "those." I've shot with a few of those and sometimes they can be surprising! Always fun.
