D at his wife's birthday dinner

I've known D for forty years, forty years almost exactly. We met
taking archaeology courses in the winter semester of 1974 and have
remained good friends ever since. I took this picture last weekend at
a dinner in honour of his wife's birthday. She's not normally a cook
but she has some recipes from her time living in Spain before she met
him. So she served us a delicious paella. I took a half-dozen
pictures at the table with some slightly (three years) out-of-date
Fujicolor 100 film in the Rollei Prego.
The Prego's flash is a little overbearing and I didn't like the
pictures until I tried a black mask behind the colour. That brought
down the high tones a bit, and gave a bit more depth overall.
