Dawid,
Ah yes. Well there's a DoF duh for me. Don't know why that didn't occur to
me. Maybe because my fastest OM lenses are f2.8 ;) It's a great learning
tool for me to get insight into other photographers artistic process, so
thanks for the explanation.
Have a great week, and I'll look forward to the prints from the rest of the
roll. I really don't know how you find the time. It's all I can do to soup
and scan a roll every week or week and a half. More power to you keeping
traditional b&w processes alive.
