Stop and smell the blooms
Ken Collins stopped and smelled the flowering trees blooming in Ada. He shoots digital and film and as he puts it: "I keep flirting with shooting black-and-white film occasionally and developing it myself, like the good old days." This photo was taken with 35-mm Fuji film in an old, but good, Pentax Spotmatic F camera. (Ken Collins photo)
