It's nice to see that things have been lively around here while I was out of town. Here's something to keep things moving.

This shot is not intentionally murky--it just illustrates what you get when you use a 400-speed film (HP5+) in a situation that requires 6400-speed film (I didn't have any Delta 3200 with me). No matter how hard you push, the shadow detail is very weak at best. But I think it gets the point across. . .

This is low value overload to me. I appreciate the subject, but I can't see it well enough to appreciate it to the degree that it deserves appreciation. It makes the finger prints show up on my monitor too well.

Really, really interesting!

My first reaction to this image was similar to Tony's. But just like looking in the dark long enough lets you see, this image became more interesting the more times I came back and looked at it. And now I can read all sorts of things into it that weren't the least bit obvious at first.

Also, the left third (or so) of this has a strange, abstract quality that could be very interesting on its own.
