    Unusual photo kit. I think there's supposed to be a rail for the bellows. SW

    Bellows section looks awfully short as well- possibly cut or torn.
    Copious amounts of duct tape holding the extension tube on the end as well.
    Looks actually quite a bit like a War 1 gas mask snootle.

Such a set up would suffer from control, and repeatability issues. The big miss here is lack of reference to the focus plane. It may work for crazy special effects, but just try doing the same thing twice :P

    Moulting teenager geese on the Red River near the mouth of the Assiniboine.

    Image is a considerable crop from the original. 1/320 sec f8 at ISO 64 with the O.C. Nikkor 35mm f2.



    Provencher pedestrian suspension bridge over the Red. Known in local parlance as the "dink" bridge.

    O.C. Nikkor 35mm f2 at f8 again.



    Canadian Museum for Human Rights. What an architectural dream, and an erector's nightmare. Straight lines are rare on this structure. Horrid resemblance here to a cow patty.

    O.C. Nikkor 35mm f2 at f5.6.

    Regards,

    O.C. Nikkor 35mm f2 yet again:



    At f8 here and ISO 64. I like this rendering a lot. Slightly manipulated in post for contrast and exposure. Not sharpened.



    Considerable crop of upper left hand corner.
    This lens seems to minimize it's barrel distortion by being shot vertically.

    Dried clay and vegetation along the north bank of the Asssiniboine river.

    That made me laugh out loud. I have a Minolta lense with a rail. One of the only "vintage" lenses I have that I use and like.
    If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.

    The geese around here are getting mighty tolerant of people.
    O.C. Nikkor 35mm f2 at f 5.6, ISO 64. In camera monochrome.



    Provencher pedestrian bridge over the Red almost converging with the road bridge here.
    Same as above except f8.

    More to add to this set in a bit. There's some cropping/editing to do first.

    Regards,

    During nesting season?
    That seems unusual.
