I am really enjoying the MX as a street shooter. Very light, smooth, and capable camera. And full frame!

Film: Kodak TMAX 400

Awesome, the MIB is a really impressive part of the Days of Future Past vibe.

Nice!

I have been enjoying my full frame (MZ-7) for the last couple of weeks. It has been some nine years since the last time I loaded film into it. The funny thing is, even after a whole roll of film I still look at the back of the camera after every shot

It is a very good photo ... and Donald Fagan's "Nightfly" album is one of my all-time favourites

Indeed, I have caught myself doing likewise more than a few times

Many thanks! I am still honing my developing process. This one is a little softer than I would like. I'm going to try a 1:1 mix of D-76 to try to sharpen things.

Ah well, as Mr. Fagen wrote in another venue:


Hey nineteen
That's Aretha Franklin


At any rate, a great shot--the more I look at the gent's slew-footed gait, the more otherworldly and disturbing the photo becomes.

Slew-footed is a great expression. The awkward gait and the generic business garb of the solo figure framed by metal, concrete and steel do give the composition a dystopic feel.
