Hi Richard.
If you're referring to the third image, yes it was a relatively slow shutter 
speed as it was Velvia with a polarizing filter (-1.8f) on the front. To get 
more DOF I was?stopped down to about f16 if I remember correctly. Nice Zeiss 
glass on a Rollei SL66;?bought it after selling all my HV equipment. Same 
glass, different platform.
Also, it's a "new" scanner for me. Sold my Nikon 8000ED to buy a used 
Polaroid Ultrascan 45 so that I could scan 4x5. There is not glass carrier 
available so the 6x6 is not quite as flat as it should be. I'll just have to 
save for that Imacon ;-)
Thanks for looking,
Bob
BTW, the first?2 images were even slower; f45 at about 1 minute. The first 
image is?under exposed as?I forgot to factor in reciprocity failure...

I meant to ask the same. I suspect sllllooooow shutter speed?

Also what film? I don't think it's Velvia? It's more subtle, I like it!
