[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is one of my favorite B&W pictures. It was shot on Ilford Delta 400, and processed with Kodak D76. I forgot the exact date and details of the shot, but it was taken in March of last year.

The person in the image was cleaning the fountain area near the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur. No one was around except us.

In PP, I did some changes in Levels, and sharpened a bit.

Hope you like this as much as I do! :)

Hi Pierre,

Good shot, I like your colours choice and the composition, but I am just not sure if that's your pp work result with lots of grain? If so, is great... :) Thanks for sharing

Cheers,
Sweety

Hi Pierre,
Great BW work, good composition. Well done.

Hulya

husay bro. maganda talaga texture ng ilford. wonder why they never sell it in the philippines hmm.. anyways, good level adjustment. higher blue levels? tama ba? keep up the great shots my friend!

Ilford Delta is fantastic B&W film. I'm using Delta 100. But let's talk about the picture: Very good frame and taken at good moment!

Hi Pierre,
Excellent compo. Love the diagonal placement of the worker and his bamboo pole in the frame. Water ripple would probably be more appealing had it not been a bit grainy. Best wishes. Danilo

This is a wow shot Sir. Ang galeng. The composition is nice.

Very good BW pre! Very good contrast and texture!

Hello Pierre,
Good composition, and I like the action you capture!
Grainy and contrasty image works well with me, pleasant composition where the the ripples in the water add nicely to the composition!
Greetings,

Hi Pierre,
Great work on this one, Excellent composition and the B&W work is well suited to the image. At first glance he looks like he is wading in a river but he is in a man made pond, excellent!
Thanks,
b.

Regards.
