Tones.

Although this is Superia 100, as against 400 used in the Swiss Cottage picture Alberto, it nevertheless manages to hold on to detail in the shadows and most of the highlights. My friend who is a professional photographer, and who converted to digital some time ago was impressed with this and some of my other pictures, and I think he had forgotten until then some of the attributes of film, including the better ability to handle high contrast scenes. He mentioned buying a film camera and a film scanner again!
