The portrait of Monica and this one are my choices:

http://www.greatpix.eu/FIlm/Brussels-in-the-rain/i-Pcv7jcD/A

Also shows how much more we are psychologically attuned to accepting grain
in film, while at the same time not accepting noise in digital (magnified
to 200% on the monitor, and gazing at it from 6 inches away, of course!).

Cheers
