Nice work as always, Jeffery!

- Ah yes, TX400 ... still a nice film, but I haven't shot any in years.

- 3:4 ... I proportion photos anything from ultra-oblong to square,
but most of what I like tends to fall into approximately square to 3:4
format. It's one of the reasons I've gravitated to FourThirds and 645
cameras, the native full-frame format is closer to my perceptual bias.
35mm Film (2:3) always seemed too oblong for general purpose use on
verticals to me, but is fine for horizontals, with a cinematic feel.

Raises an interesting thought ... I'll have to look up how many
verticals I have in my finished work vs square vs horizontals. I shoot
a lot of vertical orientation as well as square.

Fun stuff. :-)
