Sometimes one takes pictures expecting they won’t turn out great because, like in this post, the circumstances are stacked against the photographer. You take a look at the results and think to yourself “I knew it.”, and after browsing through the images again and again you get stuck every time you see them. There is something. Something that makes you not want to discard them despite their obvious imperfections. In the presented case, it was obvious that the waning light would pose a problem with holding the camera steady enough for sharp images. But Harman Phoenix 200 is already a grainy film. Does the bit of blur even matter? I like the composition, the colors. What more do I need?
