Harmonica hipster
Very dapper cat showed up at an open mic and started playing harmonica - and was excellent. Then he disappeared, nobody got his name. This was my first time pushing Tri-X all the way to ASA3200 and I have to say I think I like this tonality better than Tmax P3200, which I've been using for along time. The sharpness of my Canon FD 55mm f1.2 stopped down to F2 helps a lot here. Still fast enough at F2- and this guy was only a few feet away from some stage lighting - the real value of the f1.2 lens is a brighter image for my middle aged eyes to focus with.
