Paul,
Interesting pictures. I am up in the air regarding the B&W vs Color.
Given the subject, can refer to this as a canned performance?

Thanks Christine. I think I'll convert the newer ones as well. I
first showed them all as color, but later decided I preferred them as
BW. In rendering the new batch I wanted to get the color as close to
correct as possible as a first step. When I first showed this set on
the Leica forum more than five years ago, it was titled "Trailer Park
Trash," and it caused quite an uproar and a long debate. The photos
are all staged of course, so I never felt that title was demeaning,
but it apparently offended some.

I was looking through some negatives yesterday and ran across the
pics I shot at a trailer park in 2003. Those who've been around for
awhile saw the ones I originally posted. Later I came back with
some BW versions. Looking through the machine prints that were with
the negs, I found some that I never printed that I now like.
They're all 35mm (whereas most of the earlier ones were MF), and
they were shot at dusk on Portra 400, so they're grainy. I scanned
the negs on my Epson 3200 and had to sharpen quite a bit which made
them even grainier, so they're far from perfect. But I like them.
I'm probably going to scan some more shots when I have time. The
color pics in this folder are the new scans, none of which have
been shown before.
The camera, by the way, was my LX. Not sure about the lens, but it
was probably the SMC Pentax 50/1.4. I know I used some flash. I
think it was the AF 400T firing into a reflector.
The folder is here:
