I just read your Wal-Mart comment and I had to laugh. I just came to the conclusion today that my local grocery store does just as good of a job processing as the more expensive photography/specialty stores (I did a comparative study to make sure). Although I'm sure there's a Holy Grail of processing out there somewhere . . . .
Anyway, the photo! This is a wonderful abstract - one you can take a long time to peruse, finding more and more to look at (I personally like the X's and O's). The contrast is right on the mark. There's a bit of distraction in the bright spot in the lower right hand corner - it interrupts the flow a bit, but isn't too severe. Well spotted!

Thanks Mark. It's not just a good scan, either. The image quality is actually very good. It's just the cheap-o C41 process B&W you can get at any drug store. I've actually had better luck with that stuff than with T-Max. Then again, I don't do my own processing, so... I just used Wal-Mart's 1 hr processing for this roll :) The on-screen image looks almost identical to the 4x6 print (thanks to my film scanner) and I could probably blow this one up to 8x12 without much graininess. Thanks for the comments. ~Adam~

Another thing too, is how nice the image quality is from this film. Is it T400CN? I never got good image quality from this film until I started using it at 200, and even 150 ASA consistently in all my cameras.

Fantastic abstract, resembling maybe little solar systems (I've had too much coffee & not much sleep).
