Remember "Them!!"
The one about giant ants?
This reminds me of it. Taken with a Chatham Rectilinear wide open -- lots of coma. The day was just turning overcast.

kasebier negatives
There's a trove of original negatives by Gertrude Kasebier at the Library of Congress. The starting point is here:

You then type in her name (or anyone else for that matter, Ansel Adams, Walker Evans) and up comes a trove. I put some at the large format grou:

but nobody seems interested (too bad for them).
The last one on LFP should interest this group. Jim! What lens do you think took it?

Wide Open Heliar -- macro shot
This is with a 300mm Heliar, shot wide open on 220 Kodak Portra 400VC (6x9).
Depth of focus is about 1/4 inch.
Another Verito shot
This is a tight crop from an 8x10. Great Swamp, NJ. You can't step into the field as the Wildlife Service will give you a ticket if you do. I'd like to go there again and take off the front lens (double the lengh). Talk about Pictorialism!
Verito 14", f/8
More with the Verito
One shot inside, two outside. I'm getting a better hang on how to focus this lens.
