Each shot stands alone, but together they juxtspose wonderfully. Spring is such a dichotomy: in some ways dirty, brown and dismal, in others sunny and colourful and filled with hope.
You've captured both sides of this season beautifully.

I added vignette since that fine lens would never do that... I don't care much for the Ektar though I still have a 5 roll pack left over from fall. It seems to compress the color tonality, but it is very sharp. Second is on Fuji Reala with the SMC Takumar 105 f 2.4, wide open. It was a throw away shot just to wrap up the last frame on the roll before calling it quits, but turned out to be the best shot of the bunch. I almost never use that lens wide open. I'm assuming that Fuji will be around longer than Kodak, and while I prefer Portra I'm guessing Reala will become a mainstay film for me in the future.
