Re: February portraits...
She who must be photographed. Made with my commie bargain lens, bought off the Bay last week -- an AUS JENA 210 6.3. My understanding is that this tessar was made in the Zeiss factory in East Germany during the Cold War, but because of patent regulations could not be labeled as Zeiss when imported to the U.S. (More experienced heads on this forum probably know more.) Anyway, I was looking for older glass and it was cheap. So far, I like. The film if Bergger Pancro 400, developed in HC 110 / B.

Thanks! I'm always impressed by the Xenar's quality stopped down, apparently size isn't everything :)

Looking at the menu in the back, mouth watering starts...
May I ask which restaurant it is and in which city?
Thank you! It's the "Justus K." in Aachen, Germany. They offer three to four fantastic main courses depending on what's freshly available that week, superb wine selection and a Michelin recommendation =)
Re: February portraits...
Bill, I love this strong portrait, tones are wonderful with the Bergger 400, composition is excellently supported by those straight lines!

Thanks, when I am in Aachen, I probably check it out. How many free meals did you get for the portrait? :-)

Cool. I like my soft focus lenses, but have a hard time finding the appropriate subject.
