Great stuff Holden! Another 5x7 user here - recently acquired a 150 G-Claron to go between a 120 and 210...but somehow I think something more "165-ish" would fit perfectly, both visually and proportionally. So...you like your Paragon?

I do but it only stops down to f/32 so I have a K2 on it to give it a stop more. Not in a shutter, if you're not afraid of barrel lenses its a bargain. I only own a couple lenses in shutters and I infrequently use them. I think your 150 sounds ideal if it covers. I may yet get one for my 5x7. I will keep an eye out for your photographs...

Final version of Amicalola Creek III image. My first post of it in this thread (#5556) was an iphone app scan and altered in PS. This is an almost straight scan of the print and has a different tonality. I decided merely to warm it up a bit rather than going full on brown.
Printed on Ilford MGFB Classic in LPD 1:2, Selenium toned 1:24 for 3 minutes, Ferri/bromided bleach 1 minutes (very dilute), Thiourea toner 28A/28B/500water for 3-4 minutes until bleached tones came back. Print scanned,cropped, spotted, and sharpened. Image has some scanner blurriness at top that is not in the image.
