Man Ray said grain is the brushstroke of photography.
And I don't think he even shot 35mm.

A 35mm is in touch with his/her grain if they are film shooters.

A sheet film shooter only see's their with a grain magnifier when they focus
their enlarger.

Maybe they use a magnifier thing on their heads like I do when they spot.

Down spot down!!!
