I've posted this here before. A classic double exposure, but on a 4x5" negative. From a quarry in the Lake District.

Today I was at the Monet Marmottan exhibition in Madrid (paintings usually housed in the Musée Marmottan in Paris), which is Monet’s private collection of his own paintings which he never sold, and of

In a Leica store with a flagship lens, of which I was trying out the new focus grip; while this store keeper was waiting on me, so I pushed the shutter.

Unfocussed (.5 cm front?) - but still I like the atmosphere, the soft background. The character it displays.

Yes - I will consider this lens in the future, even if it requires some new habits. 

My future with the 50mm Summilux FLE has indeed arrived.

Now, what I read about the 'Karbe look' is not quite right. He - I think - hates the bourgeois. It is "almost impossible" to make sharp portraits. The picture in the Shop was no accident. The focus throw of the lens is so small (100 degrees?) and the real focal plane so thin (1 mm??) that it is impossible to hit it right without a lot of practice. On the EVF it is easy to nail down... but I live in RF land.

So I'll have to do with some un-sharp pictures for a while. Get the feeling of this 'Karbe look'. .

Focus on the glass rim.

My wife looked at me a bit worried and asked me if I was OK.

- no, I'll buy back my traded-in Summilux 50 II. . . I am a bourgeois after all.  LOL.

I'm not sure that some people have actually read my OP!......It is NOT a thread for 'nice bokeh'. It's a thread for photographic disasters and accidents, that still have something worth looking at.......Please stick to this concept. Or I will have to start another thread...

Oops!

Apologies, Paul, for the misunderstanding; I, for one, will pay more attention to 'The Brief' - as set out right at the start - from now on.

The idea was to keep the crack in focus and background blurred. As a result no sharpness at all 🙂

I'm thought I contributed with pictures that were un-sharp to me but now I think you reacted sharp to me    😬

Anyway - apologies
