Thank you, Helen! 🙂🙂

It is a wonderful lens to work with, even if it's as heavy as a Messerschmidt! There's a creamy smoothness to the way it draws, while still being sharp as can be in the details. Maybe it's a mix of overall medium contrast with great microcontrast? Whatever it is, I really enjoy working with it!
