Taken with an enlarger lens, in an as yet incomplete tilt/shift mount, this was an experiment in adjusting the plain of focus, trying to get both my son & the distant houses in focus, with the top of the tower out of focus.
I didn't quite manage it - but you can't get more manual focus than this - so I had to post it!

I guess it's a short focal, right?
Would you care to post a picture with the mount?

I've put a few photos of the mount on flickr (they were just snapped with the kit lens - AF) see:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/petrochemist/5195895195/in/set-72157625315401081/
It takes any m39 lens, so far I've used both those shown in the set above -a 50mm & a 75mm nothing special by name (and both badly in need of cleaning) - I think this was with the 50.
{Edit}I've just dug out the 75mm it's an E-Chibanon f/3.5, the 50's currently in the lab at work, so I won't be able to check that till I've officially recovered from my 'autofocus/white balance upgrade' (eye operation)
{Edit 2} 50mm is a Phago F/4.5
Since I took these I've added a PK mount to the back of the bellows (glued on a very cheap flanged M42 adapter) The 75mm needs a short extension tube to bring it down to infinity (or to be pulled out about as far as the bellows stretch). I guess I ought to add another photo to the set to show the mount - I'll try & do that soon
At some point I plan to build something similar for my vintage Kodak 12cm Anastigmat which is a much nicer lens but rather long FL for tilt shift.

No it's the Naze tower at Walton on the Naze, Essex apparently built to assist ships with coastal navigation. |
