My youngest granddaughter Jade. 1/4 plate Graflex Super D, Efke PL100M sheet film, old brass lantern projector lens I bought for a dollar at a flea market, 1/200 at I guess f4 (wide open with a yellow filter). This lens gives a nice soft effect but no swirl!

The trouble with high school girls is that when you want to capture the brooding heartache of teenage angst, they're just so damned happy...


12" Velostigmat @ f/4.5 on a 4x5. The diffuser adjusts from 0 to 5. I had it set on 37.
