I haven’t decided if this is the last image I’ll post from Los Angeles. It’s probably not. However, it’s quite disappointing to see it at such a small scale. Rather than provide a larger version of the entire image, I’ve decided to give you a pair of croppings. The first is just a crop of the subject:

The next is a detail that is a straight 600×600 pixel crop from the file. When I print these, I do usually scale them up a bit, as the largest scan I can get on an Imacon X5 or 848 is still not quite big enough. But I haven’t done that upscaling yet, just fyi.

FWIW, this was shot on Portra 800 color negative film of the 120 variety with my Hasselblad 80mm. If I’m going so far as to show you that last detail, I might as well give you the specs as well.

Grain is good.
