Another long exposure. This one was 2 minutes on ilford panf with the hasselblad using a 40mm lens that I rented for the weekend. I loved the 40mm lens. I think it will end up being the next lens that I buy. This shot pretty much clinched it for me, too.

Thank you! This shot took a bit of work. There's 4 'bad' versions as well - though most of them i knew were bad when I did the shot (e.g. deciding the angle didn't work - thinking that what went on during the exposure didn't work, etc...) - I also forgot about reciprocity failure on the first shot.

I am happy that the 'last' version of this that i took was the one that I kept. I definitely want to start doing more shots like this - that are thought out and planned, even if on the spot. I sometimes give in to 'snapshotting' a little too easily. (Though not so much with film it seems0.
