Left: normal lens, Right: flipped lens

I have always meant to flip the meniscus lens in a Brownie Hawkeye since reading @kdstevens great article: www.lomography.co.th/magazine/114289-flipping-over-the-brow…. After a great album by @akula and, dare I say it, a bit of a challenge from @neufotomacher, I grabbed my second best Hawkeye and performed the very simple reversal. Being the complete geek that I am, I had to perform a comparison test with identical rolls of Fujicolor NPS 160, expired in 2006 and home processed in Arista C-41. In each pair, the shot on the left is with the normal lens and the shot on the right is with a flipped lens.

    I think I prefer the flipped version over the straight version in every shot. Well done set, the side by side comparison is interesting.
