A sign directing voters where to go in a Mormon Church turned polling location in Layton, Utah. Shot for the NYT.
Unrelated but I shot 80 percent of yesterday with my x100 that I just got two days ago. It’s got some quirks but it is pretty damn fun to use and the image quality is pretty incredible.
