Magnificent work! I especially like the first one, with the Heliar. You inspire me to go out with my M6 + Heliar and try some night shots as well! Thanks for sharing, Manfred.

(btw - is the built in light meter of any use in these situations?)

The reading off the light meter worked fine.
But remeber to imagine a large meter circle around your subject.
You know . . . how the metering area vary according to the focal length.

I see your M6's meter doesn't underexpose like mine POS M6 does...

Perhaps you need to check your M6 see whether the meter reading is off.
Or the meter sensor has dirt covering it.

Superb work. Why are you leaving the stop bath in for 3 minutes? I thought 30 seconds was long enough.

Thanks!

Dunno . . . was just following some formula found on the net.
My timing could be off.
