Thanks Mike! The time machine aspect makes film shooting kind of fun every now and then. I'm going to keep shooting a roll now and then just for fun.

A little aside here: one of the 35mm rolls came from the camera collection I inherited from a deceased friend so that was pretty interesting. Looks like it was college graduation here in the late 80's or early 90's (based on the acid wash and big bangs). The images are exceptionally noisy. I'm thinking the film which was pretty fast, 800 ASA, must have deteriorated over the years. Cool to see John's old photos anyway!

Valle Verzasca in Switzerland. If you have a closer look to the last one, you can find Nessie (?) diving down to the river...

Square crop of the first:

This square crop is very effective. I think it tightens up the composition for more impact.

My opinion, this is a stronger composition/crop.
