The 2nd. pic is of the Camera Museum Cafe, an iconic place owned by an eccentric, Korea- born, former pro photographer who did 25 yr. round trip to Chicage. You can get some gastro-internal GAS and RFF/ GAS in the same place because he has a great collection of old RFs, including Leicas, displayed. His specialty in the USA was nudes so the ceiling decorations (photos) are quite a distraction. I get in trouble w/ GF every time I go in there.
In the same neighborhood there are scores of fine, tempting used camera stores.

Bill, interesting pictures. What's going on in #3 (with the guy giving some sort of presentation)? Also, these look a little grainy -- what film? Or is that the scan?

Very poor scan I'm afraid--don't use those people anymore. Since I don't speak Korean, I don't know what he's doing in N0. 3. Maybe he's a "sidewalk Math Prof." or maybe he's trying to sell something.

Hi Bill 58. Actually I think the scans are excellent. Considering the shots you posted are approx 20 inches x 30 inches, the pictures are sharp as a tack and the grain is very sharp as well. Reminds me of Tri X in Rodinal in the good old wet printing days. That Yashica lens is brilliant too. Nice shots.
