I like the first one best. The ones with her looking through the strings, while they would be acceptable if you had no other options, are not as good (imho) as the first. Other than being able to see her face better, there's something about the expression on her face in #1 that I find quite alluring - you've captured it (the face) from the perfect angle, imho. I do rather like the grain; it gives the photo a nice mood. I have to say, though, that Neopan 1600 at 3200 seems much less grainy: http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3896653&size=lg Which Kodak film were you using? T-Max 3200? Lovely photo (even with the grain). cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
