Nice abstract and composition. 

Did you intend the grainy feel?
With the struggle for sharpness, clarity and low noise, my mind is conformed to hate grain.

Thanks you, Hassner,
yes, the grain is generated — T-Max tubular type.

I have no issue with sharpness on my 64 combos.
Clarity was not needed since all is wet and reflective.
Low noise is no issue as all was well within the 14.3
stops of DR,

"T-Max” Wow, there is a blast from the past.
A brand I forgot about.
I was an Ilford freak, film, paper and chemicals.
FP4 was my go-to.

I've always been an Ilford addict too! :)

When T-Max came out I was impressed by the way it held
the details in the dark and its push tolerance.

My choice of films at the end was XP2, FP4, and T-Max.

I also toyed with XP2, but it was a bit clinical without character for me.
Great for technical work, but B&W was my fine art.

What I love of the XP2 was the very extended tonal range
— being a chromogenic emulsion. Outstanding flexibility.
