How unoriginal a title...

Kodak's T-Max 3200 is one of those things you either love or hate, and I love it. The grain, the atmosphere, the sense of class and oldness, the whole shebang. True, it's expensive and not the easiest possible film to use, but who cares, I like it.

As for the photo, I have a bunch of technically better photos from this match, but for whatever reasons, this is my favourite out of them all. And before someone says it, yes, I am aware that sports photos are more interesting when you capture the faces and expressions of the subjects. But, like I said, this is my favourite and that's why I'm submiting it. In all its noisiness and clutter, it's a perfect representation of the moment; people shouting at each other, coaches shouting at the fighters, the audience cheering on, the rhythmic music aiding the fighters with the pace, the sweaty, grubby ambience, and the speed and intensity of the fight. I wasn't expecting very many photos to work out, but I'm happy to say I did get a few pretty decent ones.
