Larry, your series gets across the feeling of that day and place.  Emotional tones (sad and happy angels) as well as great black and white tones.  IIRC Rolleicords went up to Model V something, so the model III must date back quite a few years; it surely performs well.

I got it from Nelsonfoto a few years ago. She is a gem no matter how the leather looks. Thanks

I think you're secretly in love with that first angel, bro.  She's got the face of a farm girl from Iowa.  Smiley

Yes, and it's unusual: "Untitled-1".  Cheesy

She's got the name of a farm girl from Iowa, too.  Was this statue intended to be a likeness of the deceased?

I like that last fellow with the coconut shell on his head.  Lots of texture in that one.  Like I can rub my
finger on the computer screen and feel the roughness of the stone.  Neat shots, Larry.

Thanks.. I did not know I lost it... :-)  Dean you should see the negative. That does not do it justice.  Close but no cigar.... I will scan it higher then downsize it... that is more or less a straight scan.

Larry,

Very nice series with great tones and textures.  Your cemetery has a wide range of angels' expressions and somehow you always surprise us with some new ones. Never saw a cheerleader type angel before.

I'm guessing the lens is a Schneider-Xenar. Am I warm or wrong? Always liked FP4 for my outdoor Rollei shots, but never souped it in Acufine.

You haven't lost it, IMO, you've gained it, and...a lot. Keep it up! (no pun intended)
