Re 2nd image.. cropping from the right up untill the guy's arm would give you a much stronger image than it already is, Reiner. A square format with the top hat at the upper corner...very nice IMHO.

hi reiner.... i really love the second photo and dont think any crop is needed there.. it looks great..

crop will loose the atmospher that is very well rendered with the face and mimics of the guy in front.......

 

about using delta3200.... i dont know if u in love with this film, so sorry if im ugly about it..

i have tried many ways with this film... in small roll it is simply not good enough... i really tried hard cause i wanted that speed... in medium roll it is also not good enough.... sorry... this film is not up to ilfords standards....

 

i would rather suggest the fuji neopan 1600.... this is a film with amazing charcter and great tonality...... while hp5 is my fave film and i push it alot to 1600, the neopna 1600 has its place because neopan doesnot go too harsh in many situations where ilford hp5 pushed can go harsh.. it is about lighting situation, not only in terms of how much light u have, but mainly what kind of light u have there..... in dark situations, the light that does exists can be very harsh, and here the neopan is great releif and u can take a great control over the tonality and the atmospher of the photo....

 

just try it, then if u can, for best results, print it in the darkroom, and u will see how amazing the neopan 1600 is.... one of the sexiest looking films in my opinion.

I dont think there needs to be any cropping on the second image, its a very strong pose from the subject and cropping it would make him looked cramped. Personally, i am a fan of the illford, very grainy yes, but its really beautiful for certain subjects, like this street photography. it is a gritty subject and the grain emphasizes' that.

Lovely shot, it reminds me of halloween in New Orleans.................
