Tractor Show People (Pic Heavy)

From this weekends Freedom Festival in Rives Junction, MI. It was tough shooting conditions. Fog rolling in, on and off, crazy changes in brightness and shadows. I wish I'd have brought a light meter. Nikon F, 35-70 72mm, TriX, D76 stock. I need to pickup a 135 f2.5 or 85 AIS, the zoom is handy though.

Man ... film seems to have so much more character than digital. Well done.

Thank you bud. The cool thing is I can do a print and go over to the thresher club and drop off 8 x 11 prints. The people absolutely love them and I enjoy bringing a smile to these hard working Americans. Everyone knows everyone in these groups. I'm known a little bit now, a few have been calling me camera man.

I just love the grain, textures, the imperfections. It really is very enjoyable to do and view for me. The prints really make me happy.

Awesome set. I like the old timers. 2 3 and 7 especially. #1 of the boys is really great. lots of other great shots. A lot of heart shows in these - from both sides of the lens.
