Ross in the Jaws

That's a pretty interesting look you have there, Jim! The lighting is really wonderful, and the highlights sing like a gospel choir. Impressive!

Thanks Thomas. I did 2 shots. i'll upload the other one.

Okay, I'll "bite". Is it a tomato slicer? Orange slicer?

It seems to be completely out of focus with uneven processing.

Egg slicer? Maybe for oranges. I bought it on ebay for a few bucks as a prop. It is old. Keith, not out of focus, but soft focus. You can easily read all of the writing on the lens in the negative. A good soft focus lens layers a diffused layer over a sharp background for "glow". Background was white canvas which is beyond dof but reflects a mottled look. Soft focus is an acquired taste. It's OK to hate it.

Completely okay to hate it, more of these lenses to go around for the ones who like it Interesting project, Jim!
