800 eh? that is some fast film. I have to do an outdoor shoot this weekend and I am using 100 film. I personally am a fan of the faster, grainier filmstock (like 400 or so). But, yeah, I like the mega close up and the focus on the pillow case. It looks cool so close up
The luxury of changing the ISO picture to picture only comes with digital … but with film you get more pleasant film grain at higher ISO's … digital grain is just sensor noise and it looks like … noise. That said, you can sometimes tweak noise to look alright (as I tried to do here).
I was thinking about sending them the picture. I thought my only options were emailing it or snail mailing it … then I realized I could just send the link!

I love how smooth ISO 100 shoots. If you are doing something at noontime (anytime when there will be a lot of light), or if you have a tripod, then seriously consider around ISO 50. An expensive but grreat film: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00009XVX9/qid=1126910224/
Incredibly slow film, but the detail and smoothness it yields is nothing short of breathtaking.

I think you should send that picture into Lands' End for their advertising. I bet they would like it.
