Michael--
This lens has a definite signature and your style is consistent, what I see different in your images is a change in texture. Have you changed either your film and processing and perhaps also scanning, or have you gone to a digital camera?
As always, I really enjoy your offerings, the images are compelling and the culture is so completely different from coastal Texas.
I reiterate, it was your images and this thread that motivated me to get my own 35/1.2.
BTW, this isn't out of focus, it just isn't sharp on the face. Perhaps your attention was elsewhere?
Warm Regards,
--Steve
