Carl;

I've never been able to get particularly sharp images out of mine; 
Perhaps I should have it checked? It seems adequate for 4x5, but I 
use all my lenses on both 4x5 and 2x3 (common lensboards) and it 
just won't hold up for 2x3. One of these days I'll probably sell it 
on ebay, so I'm happy to hear it has a good reputation!

BTW-nice photo either way, though I think I prefer the longer-
exposure water-blur.

Steve
