Did you do this in a secrety spyish way? These geezers don't like their gaffs being photographed, do they? Or is that just in the movies? And look! Contact sheets! Are you from the olden days, a time traveller? The pics look swimmy and mysterious, as if it should be a bit damp and quiet there, but I don't suppose it was

gotta echo the aboce sentiments... how in the world did you get away with this? photography in a casino?! or even better, photography of/via/involving their security systems? so sketchy... and thats what makes it so wonderful. thanks!

took the whole roll in under two minutes -- got a single light reading (since the space was pretty much all one ambient light) and then shot from the hip pretty much guessing at where to focus on. either nobody cared, or nobody noticed.

time travel, ah yes.. having already mastered the science of journeying to the very distant past (to collaborate with the cave-painters of Lascaux) the next logical step was to fine-tune the machine to allow shorter-range jumps as well, say to the 60s or so.

hee heee hee. the girl in the coat has a 1940's look about her, is she your lovely assistant from a noir? i like the bloke in shot 24 for some reason as well. the woman in shot 7 looks like she is praying to a robot

I would've loved the extra grain of 800 speed, but I wanted to get a little motion blur and shallow depth of field.

this is definitely a best of entry.
