My father worked here 44 years. Shot with Fujifilm GA645Zi. My first shots using the camera. TriX shot at box speed, D76 1;9. Not sure which version I prefer. Probably the cropped square version. Still need to clean up edge but I wanted to get some feedback first. It's going in a zine I'm making for family members, theme is Detroit.

Man I love this. The texture and DOF are wonderful.

thanks @Gary A. , which format do you prefer?

The square-ish one ... but I like tight. The empty space actually has content.

Right, that's what I was thinking. For some reason a 8 x 10 crop looks a little off for some reason, I didn't post that however.

These are great. I prefer the original: the square crop seems a bit pinched for space at the top.

This is a great image! I prefer the first one. The frame feels more balanced to me than the square crop. This would look fantastic as a large canvas.

Fantastic! I prefer the second crop, but only slightly.

How about metallic paper?

Thanks. I may just print it. Just finding the time to get to place to do it.

Very nice man!! I'm leaning toward the square crop. This image just screams "massive", reminds me of a Star Wars intro scrolling off into the distance. LOL Which there was something in between the two.
