GASitis.. finally cured?
Took a leisurely walk through a Bangalore market on Saturday evening. M3 loaded with APX 100, a Summitar 50, and Nikkor 85/2. The people were nice, light was good, and excellent filter coffee available in every corner.
The film was developed in Rodinal 1+50 for 11 mins at 20degC. Forgive the spots the water turned muddy during the stop bath wash.
Man making garlands. These are really long (6~10 ft and 4 inch diameter) and meant to be used in special occasions.
Old lady by the light
Banana Seller. It was a small lane, a banana wholesale market.
Flower Girl. She was servicing customers oblivious to me clicking away.
Fruit-seller. The cover you see behind hides a variety of fruits.
Cool Vegetable Seller. She was protecting her eyes (probably had a condition) from the afternoon sun.
Ice-cream man. They were everywhere when I was growing up. A special delicacy was a plastic tube containing frozen pepsi (or something like it). It would provide relief against the summer heat for a couple of hours, and it was cheap.

Superb photos, great tones and lighting, it is a shame the water turned muddy.

Many of the faces are too dark in the shadow areas, Ashwin. You could consider making a project of this market area. No more than 20 ruthlessly selected photos, never mind how many rolls of film it takes. Do try not to succumb to an over-dose of coffee.

Thanks meven.
yeah. As I mentioned, I need to improve on my scanning. plus, the metering here was complete guess work. my VC II is dead in water.
There is a wonderful place (Vidyarthi Bhavan) on the same street which serves great dosas (pancakes) and kesari baath (sweet pudding).
