LOMO LC-A+, Agfa Vista 400ISO, Lucky Juju in Alameda.

Actually, I'm not sure what I think of this photo. I like the way I cropped it but the focus is soft, and I'm not sure if that's in my negative, or from my flatbed film scanner, or what. Soft focus can work, but does it work here? What do you think?

    If you look at it from across the room, or just squint a bit, it's a totally different picture. When you do, the area with the hand, red hose and the two two-digit LED displays looks like a face.
    Intersting shot...

    the soft focus works fine on the foreground since its a reflection anyway. the high contrast level of the background counters the soft focus there, making the image work.
    i also see the face: the hand and the top of the red hose are the eyes
