I must confess that I don’t like the ‘thin’ rendering evident here. Maybe it’s me, maybe not. But I have seen lovely, rich b&w from digital cameras (M9 especially). Maybe you need to turn up the ISO a bit. I think you might agree that film would look better, but that’s academic if you’re not currently shooting it.
I wish I could say I wrote more words about aesthetic qualities than technical ones, but great photos need no commentary. 😉
Oh I agree wholeheartedly, film would look better. It always does. That is why I have a habit of returning to it.
In the interim, I’m trying to embrace the “thin” rendering of digital.
By the the way, thank you for noticing the composition. That is what compelled me to take this shot.

Another fantastic composition. 🙂
