    What lens and what aperture did you use for these cool shots?

    well mine sure looks rubbish having seen the other shots.. here's a quickie testing out the kodak modifications. Turns out I got vignetting (cropped) somewhere, and bad developing in the orbital.

    Kodalith Ortho 4x5 in Rodinal.. Cooke lens f/6

    Re: Wide Open!

    Here's a couple just developed last evening.


    Hemingray 45 insulator

    Done with a Conley Series V Anastigmat 12 1/2"


    Castle Creek Merlot

    Not tellin'

    Both executed easily with the 8X10 Korona listed in the classifieds here!

    BTW, for the curious among you, both of these near perfect exposures were
    accomplished with the patented Jim Galli Shutter
