Gotta love that film color tone.

Ean&#8217;s looking sharp. And damn, when you view your pictures that you manually focused and see spot-on focus, you go, &#8220;<i>I did this.<\/i>&#8221; This used the Olympus 70-210mm F4.5-5.6 lens.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/rtwi5.jpg\"><br \/>\nWith the Vivitar 24mm F2.0 it was hard to get close focus. I don&#8217;t know how I managed to get the security guard to pop out with the crowd out of focus.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/rtwi6.jpg\"><br \/>\nJimmy of <b>Tempered Mental<\/b>!

Since I was more than 2 meters from the stage, I never had change the Vivitar 24mm F2.0&#8217;s focus.

(I actually like flare being artifacts on my shots.)<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/rtwi19.jpg\"><br \/>\nI shot mostly at 1\/30th of a second at night; the meter said it was underexposed, but I wanted to avoid too much motion blur. I could only choose shutter speeds in full stops on the Olympus OM-2000, so 1\/15th of a second was the next option! When I saw how well the negatives responded to pulling shadows, I wish I took them at 1\/60th of a second instead. Although there were bright white specks of noise, they were very easily obliterated in Photoshop (hence the clean look of all these ISO 400 shots.)<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/rtwi20.jpg\"><br \/>\nAru of <b>Koffin Kanser<\/b>.
