David, shot on my Deardorff SC11, 11X14 film with Nikon 610 mm f9
Cannot recall shooting aperture, no PS, scanned on V700 so image area shown is about 8X10

Nice shot! How many lights did you use?

The thing about head & shoulders is that many shorter lenses with smaller image circles will now cover the film format at that magnification. If you want something with a large aperture, a 360mm or even 300mm f/4.5 tessar would do the trick nicely. I've also used a APO-Ronar 480mm f/9 that's worked well--nothing scanned though.
Of course the question then is: what kind of compression do you want in your subjects features?

I like the portrait's depth, impressive... big format is big format...
