Eckart, nice images, both. Great angle. tonal range & contrast. Very crisp, but not too sharp.

Eckart, I agree with Ben. Beautiful textures.
Do You prefer the XP2 or the BW400cn ? I can't see any difference between the two films, except for the orange mask. The XP2 is very hard to find here in Belgium and the Kodak is in all shops.

Thanks to all

@ Martin
from my photographic beginnings I have been a Kodak-man, always the TRI-X as BW and not the Ilford HP-5

So I do prefer the Kodak and I think he has a better tonal range, but it is not a religion, because sometimes I use the XP-2. when I do not get the BW400CN.

Cheers,
Eckart
