Film Photography And Showing Emotion

This particular exposure I took with my film camera I thought was very subtle with showing its emotion. It was taken with the Pentax MV1 and shot with Ilford 400 black and white film. 

I thought about editing this photo but I liked how subtle the effect has. I would say it was quite a calming image where you can see the woman reading on the bench with the birds lingering behind even quite playfully. I like how the black and white photo isn't completely shown as black and white. It has a hint of red within it which gives it quite a warming feeling. I feel like if darkened it could easily be altered to look very dark as the birds and how its so deserted could effect the mood of this still image.
