Keith- very nice. Very moody- What kind of lens did you use for this? It has this almost-swirly background like a Petzval.

Thanks Scott. Ha, wish I had a Petzval

In fact this was taken with a [surprise!] Nikkor 360mm T*ED. I think the swirl you see is partially from some minor movements of the front standard, and partially from some conspiring highlights. Another Petzvalesque effect, perhaps, may be the diffuse glow imparted by the negative sleeve.

Glad you like it, I thought you might.

This is an incredibly beautiful study.
