I've been lurking here for some time, with little reason to participate.
Don't do humming birds, don't do digital, don't do personal attacks.
So, the recent postings of film shots pried me loose.
Here are some recent shots at Boston's MFA.

Leica M7, 50mm Elmar-M , f/11 @ ~ 1 sec; XP2 @ 320. You'll have to take
my word for it: no EXIF data.

Didn't know that Boston's MFA allowed tripods. Cool.
Nice work. Tone and contrast looks good. Brightness of wall behind
person at railing in the first image draws my eye to it a bit to much.
A little distracting.
If you had moved a bit more to the right you would have had the full
frame of the painting and not as much the empty hall on the right.
The second and third images are good space images. Showing
where you are and what may be going on there. The third one I felt
that if you had paned a bit more to the left and gotten in the rise of
the
escalader it would allowed your eye to roam around the image better.
But then again it is my two cents worth.
Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the comments, Draco. No tripods allowed, so I had to find a
flat surface for the camera. That limited the FOV somewhat.

Like film, I've been around for a long time, and neither of us is giving
up the ghost soon.

..and yet you can't raise your own moral values to the point of not
needing to steal the work of others.
You are a thief, Bret Douglas.

Sure as hell not you!
When's the last time you actually contributed something of merit around
here? (No, the all-too-common fluffing of your insatiable ego does NOT
count.) If you can't/won't participate in a positive manner, kindly STFU.

this one definitely rings my bell!
XP2 is simply phenomenal for these difficult
lighting situations. I presume you used XP2 Super?

Yes, XP2 Super, ISO 400, rated at 320; great exposure latitude.

Nice enough shots, especially given the limitations of the equipment
you were forced to use.
But is it just me or does the color seem just a bit off on these?

Limitations, limitations. Life is such a struggle.
(Edit: of course, only the first two shots were at ~ 1 sec exposure.)

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Harry Lockwood

I like the smooooth tones of XP2 - reminiscent of those lush 30s movies.

So did the kid survive the fall?
That pic reminds me of this one I took in Maui.
