Pretty sharp.

Bill - I admire your neighborhood, and your photos. Very "classic" look, beautiful tones.  Nice clouds (with no filter) in number 3.

I would show you my hood but I live in the ghetto and that would be exploiting people. LOL... :-)

I like that number 3 photo, too.  I'm kind of a sucker for a good lead-out shot, and besides, nice looking place.
First two shots are nice, and looks like you nailed 'em on the exposure and processing.  Good ones, Bill.

Guessed right, I just had a UV filter on my Skopar lens and it's a sharp piece of glass.

Another lens I have growing respect for is the 90 f4 Collapsable Elmar lens otherwise same camera and film with this shot.

Nice series, very sharp and classic combination.  I like the first one most of all.

In the 90mm, the transition from in-focus to out-of-focus seems a bit weird but I can't find out why. What aperture were you using?

Of course you had to ask a skill testing question like that:).
