Cooke Series III 8.5" f6.5
I feel this picture has something special. Maybe I'm dreaming. The light and the tones are complex and I was amazed how well this old lens handled it. What do you think. Don't answer too fast, give it some thought. If you don't see something other than ordinary, say so.
I'm probably nuts but of the 5 I did, this one has haunted me all week.

Hey Jim
What does it for me, is that this involves a technique that goes back 500yrs and probably more that was created by painters. The small basket w/the cup in it, is close to the corner of the frame, and you can almost reach in and touch it. Painters would do this, or put a cup in the foreground so near to the edge of a table you thoughT it was going to fall off, so that thinking about this/this technique, forced you into the space of the image.
This hit me immediately.
