I am sure the gentleman snapping the picture is a street photographer... He was very quick to draw his disposable camera and make a picture of me as soon as he saw me put my camera to my face...

While I don't regularly use slow film, I shot a lot of Ilford Pan F Plus during this trip and fell in love with it. I made a 16"x20" print in the darkroom earlier in the week and the tonal range, detail and sharpness is fantastic...

Again, this is a straight scan from the instant film negative with no PhotoShop work. In this case, there was a little bit more of solarization and natural toning which I assume was due to the different temperature and lighting conditions than the day before...

The title of the print may not be obvious in the small screen but in the print you can better see the boy casually enjoying his lollipop.
