gorgeous image...love that grain! so fine and such beautiful detail.
 
Wow, what a lovely scene. Interesting to see a rainbow cast in black and white.

All the best,

Thanks guys, this was the first roll of Delta 400 that I've put through FX39 and although it's much sharper than DDX there's also a lot more grain. I'll need to be careful which of the two developers I use for specific shots. It's also the first print I've toned using the Speedibrews yellow toner and I'm a bit underwhelmed with the effect compared with lightly split-toning in sepia.
 
Very nice, Barry! It looks superb from here.
