Canon FTb, HP5
For a change of pace, an image on film shot from a trip to NYC in September, 2009.
Also, came across this gent on APUG, went to look at his work. Wow.

Now, that’s a target to aim at (for me, anyway).
Going to Seattle on a business trip tomorrow, we’ll see what I get there. Maybe I’ll see Ray.
Quite agree, wow. Thanks for the link! For me, those summer images seems as far away from the current reality as possible…
When I looked at this photo, I had an immediate feeling of missing NYC. I’d love to go back.
I really like this photo because pushes one of my buttons: That is, there is so much contact between people via electronic means, but so little in person. I see people with their ears glued to cell phones, no matter what they are doing, even in restaurants. I see them interrupt each other to take text messages, or talk on the phone. It just bothers me.
You probably had no such intentions when taking this photo, though.
Paul, that’s a very good observation and really makes the image even more interesting. It shows the state of the times, and I’m bothered with it too.
Actually, while when capturing it I was just responding in that instant, when I reviewed the images that was exactly why I posted it, friend.
