Taken at iso 1600. I actually kind of like the grain
You've got to love the d70

Great stuff mate
I believe that shot would not have the same impact if it had been taken with a lower ISO.
The grain adds that final ingredient to the image IMO

It's funny how everyone tries to avoid grain but to many people who are not obsessed with sharpness (eg, my wife who couldn't give a hoot about pixels etc) a bit of actually adds a lot of character.

Indeed... I often play around with added grain etc, especially to b&w pics.
Character, feeling and emotion is what artistic photograhy is all about !!!

Andrew... that is a wonderful shot! I only wish that I had caught the shutter bug when my boys were babies..
Well done!
I suggest you invest in getting the shot printed and frames, those type of memories will mean more and more as the days and years go by....
cheers

That's a really nice image, dude.
I don't know about most people, but I'm really into the grain. I'm thinking of blowing up a 35mm neg to a 1 meter by 1 meter print (darkroom) at the moment and I've been encouraged on by one of my teachers because even she likes the grain...
Grain is good.
Pixels are bad.
