#3 for me, but great results all around.

What is #4?

Cheers. #3 is my fave too, and also the most challenging, over 100 shots stitched, 2 hours to shoot, 4 hours to compile in PS.

#4 is a nylon inner pillow case.

Starting to prep for a long, dark winter to have something to do inside?

Yes Klaus, with the constant rain here, it's a case of find an indoor shooting possibility or give up photography until spring.

As you are somewhat of an expert, I would appreciate any technical observations good or bad you can make, I'm not touchy about this work as I'm very much a beginner, so if you see something 'bad' or 'wrong' don't be reticent about pointing it out, it only helps me. Smile

In the last shot, the parts pointing towards the viewer are very distracting, almost feels like they will poke into my eyes.

Very good work! Especially the first three! Lens is an interesting find, I've never seen a Magnagon.... seems that I missed something Wink

I agree Alex, I wanted to get them in focus too but I ran out of battery.

Cheers Soren, I have a lot to learn but I'm off to a good start I think. The Magnagon is a fixed aperture version of the APO-Rodagon-D for Linos scanner machines, I found this one dirt cheap new and boxed on ebay.
