Attack of the Light Leak

This is from a roll of film I started way back in august and didn't finish until about two weeks ago. It was shot in my Agfa Silette, a camera that, for those of you who aren't familiar with it, offers a viewfinders with no prism or rangefinder, a shutter with 3 shutter speeds, a method of focusing comprised of guessing your distance to the subject and then setting that distance (in feet) on a little dial on the lens, and a maximum aperture of f/3.5 (which isn't too bad actually).
It's a fun little camera to work with, not quite a toy camera, but pretty close. Makes you operate under the less is more philosophy and makes you let go some. It's hard to have a ton of control with that camera but one can make it work. Oh, it leaks too.
