Queens, New York 3/11/2014. Rolleiflex 2.8f, Tmax 400.
 
It's trickier to use than I expected. I haven't a hope of focusing it without the magnifier and glasses on, and then there's the whole keeping it upright issue. I can see I need lots of practice.

Looks good Chrism. Yes the framing does take a while to get right but like you say practice is the key, after a couple of years of using TLRs I now find it secound nature as to how to move the camera to get the frame I want
Some view finders are better than others the old Primoflex I have is the best I don't need the magnifier or my glasses for that one , My Rolleicords have the worst and take more time to focus when there is low light levels.
 
Thanks froyd -- the man was hanging out and I watched him eat his breakfast sandwich too. Eventually he noticed me and made some funny faces, but this photo worked out best because a cloud moved and allowed the sun to rake across the black plywood. Later on the same day I shot this photo about 8 blocks away of a man relaxing on a scaffolding:

Here's another shot from the previous day:
