#2 and #8 are real masterpieces, Bob.
You have really a very good photographic eye when you "get loose" and photograph out of instinct instead of by rational construction.
May I give a suggestion for #8?
Crop on the left what is needed to make it simmetrical: it will come out four times as powerful.

I love the portrait, #1
Very retro look to that, seems like its 1925, but SHARP.

I have just mentioned your eye for a photo on your other BW submission.
A good comment by Orio.
I agree a slight crop would improve what is already is something very special

I'm with Orio on #2 and #8, but also really like #3 for its treatment of the whole range of light values. You are just SMOKIN' with the Kowa! Beautiful, professional work.

I am normally against centering the subject, but in this case I agree with Orio about #8. It is my favorite shot (well it is a toss up between #8 and #2) and I think it will be better with an even crop.
#2 is what I would call an emotional image, it reminds me of the sacrifices that were made to make my life better.
Thank you very much for sharing these.

Thanks again guys, I will try the crop on 8, do you think losing the shadow on the tree at the bottom too? one thing I love about MF is the real estate for croppimg the that is available. Now I see it it jumps out at me for being off centre. It was at the end of a long scanning session last night  Also I never really saw the tooling marks on the stone on the graves until I saw the scan. the Kowa has rendered these very well.
