A very enjoyable set of images - and no doubt an enjoyable project as well.

Comments are welcome, as usual. I realise many of you will get very 
disappointed because you don't notice any selfies, but you may 
actually be able to spot a subtle one if you look hard enough :-)

Exactly.

I actually mentioned it partly because I posted something similar 
earlier, and someone pointed out that they noticed the selfie...



I wouldn't know even if I did.
I lived with one of those ME Supers for a number of years. Still have 
it...somewhere.

You should take it out for a spin :-)

I got mine a few years ago as I bought a package where I really wanted 
one of the lenses (and didn't have to pay more than it was worth.) I 
don't use it much, but it's a handy camera to carry around with a single 
lens, if you don't mind shooting film.


I may also need little projects like shoot a roll of BW with this 
particular camera and one lens myself these days, if I'm going to take 
any pictures at all.

The scans are ok, but you might look at levels.

Add an adjustment layer; set black to 60 and midtones to 0.75

That's what I'd do in Photoshop. Someone else will have to tell you how
to get the same effect in Lightroom.

Thanks.



What is the cause of the seemingly low contrast (due mostly to open
shadows, I guess)?

Yes, those are mostly shot in that kind of conditions. I also think
scanned BW negatives tend to come out a bit flat, but perhaps I'm not
doing it right :-/
