I've heard that you can do some nice stuff with uncoated Elmars,
pointing them into the direction of the light source. Evidently James
Ravilious turned it into his trademark.

Tom Fenwick helped me out with a lens hood that works with 35 - 135
Elmars (it's like a little telescope), so this wasn't taken without some
kind of protection:

It was interesting to try.

James Ravilious is much more interesting though,
