Mitch in this color image you can almost hear a faint hum of the neon light. Feel the humidity. Smell the street smell of food vendors and other odors that just seem to hang in the thick air. I like this a lot and in color.
Thanks, Alan. Yes, it's the humidity that makes the light "bleed" around neon light. While the subject looks like he's posing he was just sitting like that waiting for his take-away food, which he was getting for his boss. I would not have spoken with him normally, except that I was with a friend: she's is much older but talks like a teenager, rather sweetly in Thai terms, and seems to speak with everyone. On the way over, the cab driver was exuding xenophobia in the way he responded to me, but she had him eating out her hand after a few minutes. The restaurant serves crab fritters ("hoi joh"), a delicacy that is 100% crab, while elsewhere the crab is diluted with pork filling. A similar place that started as a street food cart has been given two Michelin stars and sell the same dish for four times the price.

I spent some time in the far east a long time ago (never Thailand though) and remember how heavy the air could get and how hot it could be even at night. Like New Orleans in August but a lot more ha ha. This took me back to the sights, sounds, feel and smell I remember. Always being wet from sweat or the rain. Thanks for sharing Mitch.

What is interesting about Kentmere 400 is that it seems not sensitive to blue light. Normally one would have to use yellow/orange/red filters to darken skies to make clouds stand out. Not so with Kentmere! It makes them pop as is, with no filters.
That and its minimal anti-halation as well as the nice grain is why it is my favourite B&W film. It in no way gives a modern film look, but renders scenes vintage. And I love it for that.
Bonus - it's one of the cheapest emulsions out there.
