Out of interest, WHICH particular Hassy glass Cjogo?  The drawing of the subject looks like it may have been longer rather than shorter.

Unless it's a dramatic crop, which brings us neatly to another heated argument in another thread where folks try to prove/disprove what perspective is...

No cropping ( a rarity for me)  >  I believe this is a 120 macro

I'm constantly amazed at the level of detail put into many older buildings.  Something sorely lacking from much modern architecture.  However, as Bob would say, 'The times, they are a'changing'.  Nice work, BTW!

Thanks Cjogo,

I figured as much.  On 6x6 the 120 has an incredibly flattering rather than flattening bearing on the drawing of a view.

Keep 'em coming.
