You have the most interesting imagination. Thank you for posting your many images in this thread.

Exactly Ian, I routinely hold my filters over my handheld meter because I can never, ever remember how many stops to compensate for. Just take a reading without the filter, then meter the same subject with the filter held over the meter lens and take another reading. Works every single time for tired brains....or...do it once for every filter then make a list. I keep forgetting to do that.

Nice dof and proof anything can make an interesting image. I have been trying to find a still life I want to shoot, and here you show us chips!
With the junk I have, maybe I can find an interesting widgit.
Nice lesson!
Finally able to digitize one of my first XRay shots:, and it is actually one of my first 8x10 shots.
Fuji HRT, Processed in Sprint -Std 1-9-_ in a Beseler Drum. I had to strip the back side with bleach because huge spots didn't develop (think I'll stick to trays from now on). Scanned in 4 segments with an Epson 4870 - looking for an 8x10 scanner now!

From what I've seen of the spectrographs, blue x-ray film is mildly orthochromatic, green is fully orthochromatic. My old Ansco data guide says for Super Plenachrome and Plenachrome <similar to green x-ray film>, for sunlight use a 5X factor, for tungsten, use 3X, I would start with 3X and move on to 5X if necessary. 3X, for the younger set, means three times the normal exposure with a medium yellow filter
Wow! nice image, and I love how it looks like a miniature!

Cheers Randys etc for the advice. It's an old Zeiss Ikon 40.5mm yellow so not sure what it is. I'll try to pit it over the cell on my weston but the filter is quite a lot smaller than the cell so might be problematic.
