libertangoBack on the last weekend of February, there was an SF convention here in Seattle called Potlach.

pecunium gave me a lens, a 60-300mm zoom that he didn't need anymore, and this was my first real chance to play with it. To show you how far behind I can get in such things, I only received my pictures back today, having taken them to the lab last week.
The pictures use Tri-X 400ASA black and white film, pushed to 1600. They're all from the last day of the con, when nearly everyone was in the con suite, in one biggish, happy, party-like atmosphere. The light was coming in through the windows, and I thought it was very striking.
I'm pleased to say it appears to have come out on film that way as well.
In approximate alphabetical order by first name:
Amy Thomson (amy_thomson)
*^*^*
As a photographer, I love Art Widner's face. I think it's almost cheating, taking a picture of him. It's like taking a portrait of Ansel Adams -- there's just so much character there...
*^*^*
Glenn Hackney (WINOLJ -- I think)
Glenn and Kate Schaefer (kate_schaefer)
*^*^*
John D. Berry
*^*^*
I love Lise Eisenberg's laugh.
*^*^*
Terry Karney (pecunium, himself. Blame him.)

I hope you're making good use of the lens.
