Straight Out Of Camera (SOOC) with a film simulation applied in-camera.  Last shot taken with the GRIIIx before it broke.  It's in for repair and I'm awaiting the diagnosis.

Ever since I was a kid, I dreamed of having a canary yellow Corvette.  Never did get one, and now I'm probably too old to squeeze into this canary yellow Ferrari.

Good News / Bad News

The good news is I really like the "Straight Out Of Camera" (SOOC) film recipe that I learned how to incorporate into the Ricoh GRIIIx. The bad news is my GRIIIx camera broke on 5/3 and now I have to figure out if & where I can get it repaired. Bummer!
