Guys sorry for posting a 35mm, but this will be my last. I was a little excited, as this was my first 35mm picture and also first time loading film in paterson tank still figuring how the Pentax ME Super metering system works, this was shot on auto 1/30 had to sharpen as it was not sharp maybe because of movement of my hand.

Cheers,
Raffay.

1/30 on an SLR camera will cause too much mirror slap that causes shake in the image, you need to stay over 1/60 to avoid that.

Also, there is a "tiny format" image thread for 35mm

Yes, but very nice shot, Raffay.

That's a wonderful portrait in any format. Nicely done.

Thank you guys, @ Stone, I had that thought right after the shot 1/30 with a 50mm lens hand held, what was I thinking do you guys think the whites are white and the blacks are black, if there are any.

[Tin Can]

Simple classic and timeless.

Well done, great model.

Thanks Randy. I only wish that lady wasn't looking right at me. Didn't notice at the time but it's distracting, at least to me.

[Tin Can]

That is nothing and it doesn't hurt the image in any way. Just be glad she is out of the focus zone.
