Love your work in general, including this portraiture. Good choice of model's strong primary clothing colors. Interesting choice of super A-35mm with the 645D. I am sure that not every model would have been happy with such a sharp lens focussed so closely! With the 645D, I would have normally expected a lens of 100mm+, like maybe your 645-150 or 67-105 or 67-165, but the 35mm seems to work very well. Could you comment on lens choice?

I have no idea why you decided I've used 35mm lens. You can read on the Flickr page which lenses I've used this time

Saving the pic to PC and checking properties shows the focal length as 35mm. I suspect that is due to the use of 67 lenses and adaptors.

Yes, that is what I did, and it showed as 35mm, not sure if I did something wrong. I thought it might be some kind of artifact of the post-processing program used.

Please tell me where you could see 35mm lens here on the Flickr page:

I've saved the image to PC and checked exif with ACDSee:

I HAVE NO IDEA where you were able to see 35mm info.

I could not locate this series of photos on FLIKR. I saved one of the photos to Documents file on my own local computer and then checked for the photo for data. The information provided was 35mm. Why or for what reason I do not know.

I was waiting for that joke to come :-)
Actually, I considered doing the opposite and exaggerating 'the lean' - but twisting the star trail patterns would have been a give-away, unless I was prepared to mask around the tower, so I didn't bother with it!
