Very, very nice! Really dreamy stuff, shot optically, not via PP. And probably for cheap too. Kudos!

I was just looking at a 1936 Zeiss with the same intent... ahh, gear lust strikes again.

I have a feeling that you will get good effects shooting snow or crystals as subjects

I had no idea what you were talking about until I Googled the title and found this: Going Soft: Canon EOS 350D with VPK Meniscus Achromat (from 1915). It'd be interesting to see your setup.

Cheers
