There's nothing wrong in enjoying the inherent beauty of a technological object.
We all do that I think, maybe in different degrees but it's a common feeling here
We admire the beauty of the craftsmanship. Because, there is human spirit behind the creation of a Contax II,
just as well as there is behind a masterpiece by Michelangelo. It's only different ways of expression.

How to describe what I feel when I hold my Contax II? Don't know, but it feels good to the soul.
It also feels good to the soul when I look at a beautiful painting, or a nice human being.

As long as we are inspired by beauty in the world, does not really matter where or by what.

The problems start when we have to deal with ugliness: wars, death, hunger, empty pockets, cold in the winter, loneliness, illness.
Beauty is never a problem, it is always welcome, wherever it comes from.


Nicely put Orio




Whatever is technically wrong with this, i still see great beauty in my little Alice anf for me this is a great image of my grandoughter.
