    Thank you very much.
    Most soft focus shots I have taken in last two years were with Lancaster menisci, and most are still not edited (only scaned). I found f7 to be a sweet spot for Lancaster achromat in strong light - at least on 6x9. Here same 6" Lancaster on my almost 100 years old Bergheil 6x9:

    renes the lighting and tones in your images are elegant. They remind me of effects possible with a Zone plate pinhole.

    At the begining with Lancaster menisci shooting, I was struggling with strong halo it renders in strong light, I have learned to control it a little though it's not easy on 6x9 focusing screen, but Lancaster definitely has own signature and under some light conditions it can make very pictorial effect.
