Vintage shots
I still like to call my film photos shots while reserving images to digital ones. Perhaps I'm old fashioned. These shots date from 1975 and were made with a Leica M2-R sporting a 35mm Summicron F 2. The film was Tri-X that I developed in Kodak D 76 full strength to soften the grain a bit. Those were the days when one had to think about composition, film cost and developer options. Digital has killed photography by trivializing it. It's just not fun anymore.
