Of the series I shot, the shadowed one captured the moment better than most. Incidentally, the new Fuji Across in Xtol 1:3 handles contrasty lighting very well. Depending on what is important, I can pull up detail in her white shirt or in the deep shadows over her left eye. Actually, I had to do some layer masking to make her left eye visible at all. All in all a lovely smooth film, quite the antithesis to Agfa 100 which has a very steep curve. One of the reasons I'm not too keen with digital capture; with silver, I can capture totally different scenes by loading a different roll of film.
