There is not that much treat-or-tricking, but children dress up in school on the day and get candy from parents. So, last Wednesday my daughter's class was visited by a witch, played by my wife, who tried to spook them with scary stories. Here is the witch: http://www.wajsman.com/44.jpg She was moderately successful in scaring at least some of the children: http://www.wajsman.com/44alt1.jpg but in the end today's second-graders are too jaded to stay scared for long... http://www.wajsman.com/44alt2.jpg All pictures taken with the M6, 35mm Summilux, on Delta 400 developed in DD-X. Incidentally, it looks on the scans as if the black areas, especially from the witch's clothing, "bleed" into the surrounding bright areas. This is not on the negative, at least as far as I can tell with a 10x loupe, so it is a scanning artifact. I wonder if it indicates the need to clean my LS-2000? I have not seen this effect before. The complete PAW index is at: http://www.wajsman.com/indexpaw.htm and comments are welcomed and appreciated as always.
