Digital BW, The Print

This  happened to me a while back - I bought a field camera because I wanted
only a small area in focus, so I was screwing around with movements but
didn't like the quality of bokeh I was getting - so ... loaded a gradient
mask, gaussian blur, a tad of noise and a perfect image. Anyone want to but
a Horseman VHR?
