Thanks, Hugh. Is it the kind of artwork you will post on Usefilm? If so, I'd like to keep an eye open for it. The Helios is a Russian lens that cost me all of US$50 new (including P&P) so it must be one of the biggest bargains in photography. Of course not everyone wants an M42 lens mount! (It's not only sharp IN focus but has nice soft out-of-focus areas. That's quite rare!)

I like this and it has given me some inspiration for some art work.
That little helios sure takes chrisp shots.

Thanks, Paul. I think you mean a little kick on the curves at both ends--slightly brighter highlights and a slightly darker dark cut-off. I think the mid-tones come out OK. Well, I tried, but this was about the best I could manage. The exposure WAS difficult. I never bracket normally, but this is one occasion when I should have tried it.

Bold idea to do green in gray! ;-) The effect is classic.
Best wishes,

I like the image but I think it needs a bit more contrast. Seeing that there is a bright and dark area of the composition, I think the exposure settings were probably difficult.
