I continue to look for confirmation of a story I recall reading (in a
book or magazine) years ago. What I remember was that Edward Weston
made a number of his most famous images with a lens that was
*cracked*. Can't google up any references to it so it makes me think
I imagined it but for the fact that I'm not that clever.
