How much bellows extension do you need with the Macro-Sironar to get that sort of an image?

I didn't measure. The magnification was around 1:3. We can calculate it using the following formula: R = (t-f)/f

where R = magnification ratio, t = bellows extension, f = focal length

Here R = 1/3, f = 210mm, and t is unknown

1/3 = (t-210)/210
1/3 * 210 = t - 210
70 = t - 210
t = 280mm

So I guess I used around 280mm of extension.

example: a 300mm takes 12" of bellows extension to focus at infinity ... for every 3" of extentesion ( 1/4th) beyond is a half a stop..

Real nice, Daniel. Love the look of the processing.

Sweet....gotta love the velvia!

Thank you, Dan and Harley.

All the best,

A little deviation from "just" leaves
8x10 paper negative
contact print
CZJ Tessar 300/4.5 @ f16
the exposure time was 45 sec, so I ran to the background as the figure, and then came back to finish the exposure

you ran not so fast, you stand still for a while!
I like it, nice photo.

Peonia leaves in my garden last week.

Testing the sinaron 135, Velvia 50 of course!
a bit cropped...
