This should be printed BIG! Could also go in the minimalistic thread. :)

Thank you, Simone! We had a good time indeed and I am looking forward to our next encounter. It's always inspirational for me :)

Thank you, Smusesuse! Perhaps I will print it large :)

Thank you, Paco! There wasn't that much processing involved, just converted to BW and pumped up the contrast. No cropping was carried out, neither have I used any layers or brushes ;)

Thank you, Armando! The title will remain a mystery :)

Oh how nice it can be when you have a proper tool to process images :)
It has been a long time since I experienced a computer being quicker than my thoughts...

And finally, here is an image taken with the modified TV Heligon 42mm f/0.75 on Erik's work bench (back office) and a Grolsch bottle beer just accidentally posing for me. Rare are occasions when alcohol is (not) found in the back office :D

Brent, thank you!!!
For certain I will be enjoying this lens in the future :)

thanks for the writeup, Jakov!
glad you'll put it to good use.  cool image!!

Best

Brent

Good question ... but here is Master Erik busy at work expanding the near focusing capability of my 20 mm f/3.5 Nikkor (52 mm filter thread). He needed an extended lever in the lens and a quick raid into Jan Anne's drawers netted us a ball pen just with the right dimension. That signalled the demise of said pen for writing purposes. In return, I got a CPU-modified nice lens able to focus to < 20 cm instead of the former 30 cm, which for a short focal lens confers a tremendous difference.

That's a fascinating picture. And, kind of scary at the same time.
