Hi Moose,

Looking back some of them are a bit high key for me. The red filter I bought is 
very deep (factor 4.5 stops) so that may account 
for it.

I can get a sky with a green filter and burning in when loaded into Photoshop:

My most recent posts (this month) were with the IIIf and a green filter too:
Leica IIIf : Summitar 50mm : green filter : Kodak Professional BW400 CN

I haven't seen the Praktica mentioned as influential yet. Didn't they produce 
the first SLR?

Thanks for looking.
