@Chris: I just developed them last night and I would certainly agree with the popular opinion; it’s certainly not 3200. I’ll shot my other roll at about 800 or 1000, 1600 max! I got some pretty thin negatives at 3200 unless it was daylight.

Paul: what did you expose the 3200 at? I shot it for a long time before I realized (heard on the internet, actually) that 3200 is NOT it’s native ISO, that you really have to expose it more like at 1600 or 1000 for it to sing. I hope your images came out better than most of my 3200 images. Can’t wait to see them!

I know I’ve been AWOL for a few days, I’m reading the posts of your in historical order, so maybe the ones I haven’t read yet will contain beautiful 3200 images!

Well, when you think of it, whatever it is, someone will have designed it, right?

@Tom: Thanks so much for your kind words. I certainly do not seek any sort of fame. I just enjoy shooting and am often times surprised by what I come back with. I guess part of it is just showing up and letting the pictures happen. As for the developing, well, I just do what the manufacturer tells me. I do a little post processing with Lightroom to bring out what I want and that’s it. Rarely do a make a trip into Photoshop.

I’ve not finished the roll of Delta 3200 yet. I think that I have a few shots left, which I’ll probably just shoot to finish it. I’m really interested in finding out how it came out. This, as you know, is my first roll of Delta 3200. I wonder what it will look like. Most of the shots are from the train trip on the way to Philly, I think.

Technical first. Your Minds eye is becoming more and more amazing to me every single post. Yes, I write this a lot here, but every single dang time I come here I’m getting blown away. Your processing skills, frankly, speak volumes with your talents.

I wanted noted you’ve heard it hear first, this “Paul” dude will be quite well known in the future and not because of his good nature and heart alone.

Awesome shot. Contrast is bang on. Did you finish the 3200?

Fascinating, isn’t it? You have to wonder if the jeweler isn’t really the one setting out the costume jewelry in front of their store, bulk sales of the junk perhaps equally as much profit as selling one of their expensive pieces.

I also wear almost no jewelry, just my wedding band and really only to work–so I am always curious when I see other women with so many bangles on their bodies. What am I missing? Lol…

Humans sure make things interesting!
