"Grace...a girl has me stuck on First Base..."
My grandson is on first, but the little guy on second is exasperated. This girl can catch and throw. Who would have thought it would come to this?
I used a 1974 Nikon FM with a Nikor 135mm f/2.8 lens. The film is the new Tri-X 400 processed in Acufine developer. Oh, I pushed it to 1200 ; there is no grain.
I did use a medium yellow filter.

Norman Rockwell would love this one! The whole scene is hometown perfect, and the little guy on second is having an emotional experience that is cute, but so poignant. Excellent capture.
