Hi Eric,
very nice shots and, fear not, excellent rendition of the scans - at
least on my computer.
I do like the format, much better than my new 4/3 indeed - did it take
you long to get out of the 24x36 habit? I am asking because I haven't
got rid of it myself yet.
The kimonos are superb - and what a light in the wood!
Congratulations Eric, and please, keep shooting film and posting for our
pleasure.
Long live film as you wrote it in the previous post. And God save digital.
Yours
Phileicangemix.
