Cowbarn light. The light is amazing. It shines through the windows on the upper high sides of the barn and filters magically through the dust creating "beams" of light. I was afraid that 400 would not be sensitive enough. I was thinking of pushing it a stop or two, to bring out some extra detail, but then the shadows would have suffered. I love the HP5+ and the XTOL combination. I was going to use Rodinal, but was thinking with the 400 film it would have been a bit grainier. I am glad I shot it at 400. I was kneeling on my knees with cow shit ground into the pavement. Handheld. She was very docile as I fiddled with my camera. Love my little Sekonic L398 I got for $50. If I could only have one camera it would be my Hasselblad.
 
I like the eye. It gives her a "Joe Pesci look" in the bar scene in "Goodfellas" Full of menace.
