Pinkham & Smith Series V Synthetic
Done with a new to me 1920's 5X7 Speed Graphic. I bought the speed specifically to be a platform for this lens but it will serve for many others also.
Within a week of getting the speed and using it this one time I took it to Reno for a general overhaul by Fred Lustig. Fred is a national treasure and that is an entire story in itself. He said he would have to keep it for a month but I'm excited by the prospect of having a 5X7 with 1/1000th shutter if needed.

What's nice about this, is to compare the shot w/the Synthetic, w/the shot by the Verito from Stefan's post just below yours. With the Synthetic, words coming to me are 'a dry sheen, a crisp sort of glow', and the Synthetic to me takes the 'wet and moist road'.
Ciao
An excellent and helpful comparison. Both are lovely. Stefan's use of light is masterful.
