I like the first one. I think that it tells a story about the two people in the picture, is clear and razor sharp, and has a wonderful tonal range.

In both I have used the same Ilford FP4 E.I. 100 film, both films have been developed together in the same tank. The photo that best shows the different performance is in Roots. Anyway the Zeiss Super Ikonta requires a calibration of the rangefinder, today I have taken it to the seller's workshop to adjust it.
