These are all Provia 400F shot at 3200 and so developed by the lab for a 3 stop push. Lens was a Jupiter-8 wide open, shutter ranged from 1/60 to 1/4 on the night - these will be one at 1/60 (the leaves) and the rest probably 1/15 or 1/8, I wasn't taking notes.
Metering was an absolute nightmare, incident being no use for most the night and reflected being very rough. As a result these are all very rough guesstimates based on at what point the meter in my M6 complained about not enough light.
This one the highlights are blocked badly, but I like it nonetheless: http://www.flickr.com/photos/marramgrass/262209348/
Here the lightsource is the screen of a shadow puppet show: http://www.flickr.com/photos/marramgrass/262213318/
This guy was really tricky. The blue light on his face was only barely visible, which made focussing fun - tough with an RF, wouldn't want to have tried it with an SLR: http://www.flickr.com/photos/marramgrass/262209338/
A couple of random foliage shots complete the set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/marramgrass/sets/72157594315316246/
Laying aside my technical deficiency, I am very happy with the performance of the film, and I will have to try it again under more normal circumstances.

My M5s need red dots!
Nice if you can take the weird color shifts. I liked the first one better. Good job!

I wouldn't judge colour on these shots - the park was lit up with various brightly- and strangely-coloured lights.
Cheers for the comments.

I love that shot of the blue guy.. Nice work!
I have a film order going on soon, so I'll grab a few rolls of this to play with.
