I have six pieces in this exhibit (images posted with announcement):

They were all taken in the Ray Mine using an adapted Tair-3 300mm Russian lens. With some post processing to increase contrast, the 12x16" prints ended up looking really good. Excellent detail for such a simple lens.

The Tair 300mm gets consistently good reviews. I purchased one myself earlier this year to use with my M42 cameras. I believe it was available in M42, and also a medium format mount I can't recall off the top of my head. It was made for a number of years in various versions, I am not sure if it is still in production.

I don't know how really good it is, but it's certainly not bad! I have an older one with built in hood like this one:

The poor mono-coating of mine make for flare problems. It's also huge! Even my Gitzo Explorer had a hard time holding it stationary in the wind.
I think I paid $75 for my pristine copy, which was really money well spent IMO.
Mine came with a T-mount system so I adapted it to Z39 since I have a LTM adapter and the spacer to go with it. Have M42 T-mount and adapter as well that I could use...
thanks for looking!

The topic of your write-up is very important too.

The last two showing the technology that created the landscape are my favourites. There is an austere aesthetic that you have captured, but the technology also 'casts a shadow' on the land (see second to last picture). I also sent you a pm.

Thank you Traveler!
I was striving to show the landscape, the processes and technology while trancending it and make it personal through the use of aesthetics.
Thanks for the comments (and pm!).
Best!!!
