LOL

I think the police who were manning the booth are going to keep him on their mailing list.

I've always loved the airsoft gun in kids hands (I'm guessing it's an airsoft one, I don't think it'd be practical)... Man, that vest looks excessively large on the poor kid

Anyway, enough rambling, good shot, the contrast is very nice. What type of film did you use?

Yeah, it's just a fake gun. The SWAT flak jacket and helmet are real, though.

It's tri-x in HC-110 for 6:30m at 20C. The highlights and shadows are (unfortunately) pulled by the minilab batch scanner. I really need to get my own film scanner since I do my own negs but every time I have enough $$$ I end up buying a new lens or something else

And that's the curse of cameras. You save up for something, then your eye drifts and then you think about "more for less" in quantity. Alternatively, you end up saving up more, and more, and more and then BOOM, you can afford a 1-1200mm f/1.2 L USM OmEgA lens, but then your mind tricks itself into thinking that all other lenses are inferior.

Then you're screwed
