    Jim's SECRET WEAPON Lens!

    It's been a while since I regaled you with one of my infamous pages of pictures!

    Just when you thought it was safe.....he strikes! You know the drill, take 5 minutes
    if you're mildly interested in antique lenses / fuzzy pictures. The ones I did Saturday AM last are some of the finest I've produced. BTW, the first 3 were done with normal lenses before I made my discovery....

    ....my new Secret Weapon Lens!

    I hope you'll let me know what you think! Good or bad! I can take it

    And that's why I've spent the past year reaping lens elements from any-format lenses. Often a front or rear element has crazy potential when separated from the rest of the group. Great shots Jim. I hope I can find a few SW's myself

    I'll take that as a compliment. Lenses are like violins......
