Thanks, Olivier. It was quite a shock to all of us, and their children are particularly affected.

Paulius, that capture is amazing!

Gaeger, I am sorry for the widow, that portrait is hauntingly beautiful

Renato, your wife is lovely. She reminds me a little of the actress Julia Roberts, but more human and approachable.

Here is one from my Wollensak Raptar 127 F4.5 on the Nikon PB4 bellows.




And now the Nikon 58 1.2 Noct.

JJB,

Thanks for that, I'll tell my wife and she will be amazed by your comment, I'm sure - I told her this some time ago, and she smiled,

Pete,

Both portraits are great, the first with a press camera lens, maybe a Graflex Crown on mini Speed Graphic, the colors are superb, the second pic is an achievement in terms of light metering, the woman portrait looks great, comfortable in front of the lens,

Cheers,

Renato

Thank you Renato
The Raptar was off of a Polaroid 110. I do have a few other press camera lenses like the Ektar 127 and Carl Zeiss Jena 135. I was mostly playing with the Raptar for macro work but gave it a try with a portrait.
Pete

Oh, I forgot David.
Sorry.

David, what a bokeh and lovely model.

Oh, I forgot David. Sorry.
Lovely portrait with beautiful and gentle lady.
That Hexanon 1.4/50 bokeh makes this portrait different.

Again beautifully done Smile

I have a 44-6 for many years and I find it outstanding as well. I have a 44-4 on the way from Southern Siberia and am hoping it does as well as my 44-6. All the 44m series are good but some a little better than others. I guess I will have to wait and see.


Regards,

Gavin
