This morning I was trying my "new" SP1000 and S-M-C Takumar 50mm f1.4 lens for the first time. I messed up this exposure of the tulips, and it resulted in extreme grain by the time I pulled the image out of the film. I enjoyed shooting film after many years' of using only digital.

Here it is for your agony/enjoyment - shot on some very old Kodak Kodacolor-800.

Well, this is a crop from a shot I've shown before in two versions here. I myself like this one much better...
