Forget exposure, it's a beautiful capture! 
Plus, you are shooting with a meter-less camera, estimating every aspect of the exposure. Plus, tri-x are pretty much forgiving film.

Yea, lack of the meter is giving the thrill that makes me want to rush the guy at lab asap to find out if any of the pictures is okay
Thanks

On my first times at the lab I was terrified thinking I screwed up many shots because of the lack of a meter. At first I failed on more or less 10 frames, but in time I improved, failing only on 3 or 4 frames per roll. Still my biggest problem are the contrasty situations, and at night. Good luck I printed two weeks ago an exposure card, lets see how I things work out with it.
A pleasure mate!

Well, I'm trying to more-or-less follow the sunny 16 for now. It gives pretty much correct exposures, especially on the sunny days (when it's an obvious 11/16). But yea, correct doesn't mean good. I'm going to go through the whole roll on the sunny day underexposing at about -1EV, should look better. It will be whenever I will come across some money to spend on the film, got only one roll of Pan F 50 in my fridge. And that's the film I'm going to spare for slightly different purpose (planning on it being abstract/nature in the forest near-by, whenever I will have some time. With careful metering and such, of course

It is not perfect exposure but it is perfect composition and wonderful moment!

On the other hand, exposing more for the lights would kill the detail in shadows...
