Warm evening

The spring equinox is only three hours away; we'll officially be in

the spring season then. But the temperature is still below freezing.

Days like the one in this picture seem pretty distant.



This was two summers ago, late July 2012, but I have only now

developed the film. It was Tri-X in my Minolta Hi-Matic 7sii. There

is a lot of nice stuff written about the 7sii but I've never really

liked mine. The lens is very soft, and especially so at the open

apertures I tend to use. The Tri-X was film I bought in the mid- or

late 1990s. I've still got a half-dozen rolls of b&w film from that

period.
