Torch stand from the sailing events of the 1976 Montreal Olympics, with Kingston Penitentiary in the background. Kingston, Ontario, Canada.

 

The Voigtländer shows a bit of barrel distortion here, but it's not bad.

Nikon D5000 metered this scene at ISO 400 as 1/320th sec. at f/8, making this photograph just about properly exposed (1/80th @ f/16), not accounting for the yellow filter.

 

Heavier contrast boost than usual, bringing out the grain. De-noised and de-glitched as usual in Photoshop CS4.
