Do you use a filter with the 800T?
For most of the roll I didn't use any filter, but for that photo I did use a Rollei H-1 filter which will supposedly warm up shadows a bit.
I'm really not that sure how much the filter did though.

I believe that it really matters how our film is developed and scanned. I have the luxury of a local camera store
that is dedicated to film users and keeping costs down...they charge only $5.00 for any film type or format
(slide, b&w, negative film, 120, 220 or 135) But the real difference is that their Fuji Frontier SP-3000 scanner
gives me 58MB TIF files! It also helps that the people running the scanner are all film shooters themselves.
The skill of your developer and scanner person is probably the single most important technical part of shooting film.

Accidentally underexposed this roll by a stop, which may explain some of the odd colours. On the other hand, the other shots I've taken using other rolls of this film also frequently came out kind of orange, so it may be something more.

Also noticing a bit of pincushion distortion in the first shot. Somewhat surprised, as I wouldn't have expected it from that lens.

Didn't I just read somewhere that the Giant Rubber Duck in the 2nd shot was "Deflated" by a Tall Ship Canon Ball?

Shooting Tall Buildings

One World Trade
New York City

For those of you that have taken a picture of this building, you realize that
it is not an easy shot. We had rain on our visit but there was a break in the
storm and I was able to get it with sunlight and clouds. BTW, this is a $50 lens...

Of course not! Everyone knows you hunt giant ducks with grapeshot.
