I have a selection of my photos that I file under personal favs, but if I had to pick one that I absolutely love, it has to be this:

For the technically inclined, it's not as sharp as one would like it. But I think it turned out fine as it is. This was shot on Fujichrome Sensia 100 on my (now broken) Nikon FM10. As to why this seems square-cropped when it's shot on 35mm film: this was the last exposure on the roll, and it got only partially exposed; so it was not cropped, really. (Aside: when I gave this roll for development, this last frame wasn't scanned -- the guy probably assumed it was a "bad" exposure -- so I went again to get this one frame scanned. I'm glad I did.)

Nice colors. It is sharp where it ought to be and not where it shouldn't be, me thinks.

The sharpness bigots may not like it, just like there are bigots who don't like flashes. Don't worry, bigots are everywhere :)

Why haven't you been posting on Flickr? Or do you have a gallery some place else now?
