5.24 The revenge of the mannequins

I'm late and I'm catching up, so a bulk load today, my apologies.
To my excuse: I just got back this TMax 400 roll developed. I think something went terribly wrong because of this wild grain. But, somehow, some pictures are interesting to my eye. What do you think?

Best on black, if you have the time.

I think that's lovely. Was it in the developer for too long?

[Domenico Dodaro]

@chris667 Too kind of you, Chris. Don't know, I need to ask the laboratory owner. I fear they used an exhaust developer and they kept the film in for definitely too long...

It's fine - gritty suits this well!

[Domenico Dodaro]

@vignouse Too kind of you, Richard! Thanks.

Ha ha, your title made me laugh.. what a great capture. I do not know much about the camera and film but I do not mind the grainy look, it's different, and different is sometimes a good thing.

[Domenico Dodaro]

@365street Thank you very much! This shot was just an instinctive catch, I must say. I agree that the grainy feel is not bad in principle, only here it bothers me some, that it's so strong...

fun street shot and i agree the graininess fits here

[Domenico Dodaro]

@amyk Thank you very much, Amy!

VML the graininess..for me it emphasises that this stylish window display needs skill and expertise to seduce potential customers.
