Maybe its the harsh lighting. Or maybe its just the mood I'm in this evening. The only one that caught my attention was cop. Did you shoot much with the 28 Elmarit in HT? Or use the same film? Something seems different about these photos--as though a dimension is missing. I can't pinpoint it exactly, but what feels closest is some quality of the light (too harsh) and the absence of interesting background (London with that fabulous architecture provides such a lush backdrop). What are your impressions?
