Nice Mark! For some reason I was shooting square format yesterday myself. I've been thinking about it for weeks, and finally made an adapter and mixed up some fresh chemistry on Friday. I'll post an image once the sun comes up.

Edit: Here is a digi-snap of this 5x5 plate. I shot it several times and some images were predominantly blueish, and some warmer. This one is closest.

Mark, I remember you saying that you don't mix soft and wet. In this case I did, as I was using the universal heliar (wide open) and forgot it was on full soft from a previous shoot (my wife, who is 53, likes here portraits soft...).
