I spy

Another shot I have been sitting on, again on the fence with it.
Here it is.

x 2 - plus the coloration presses the image as if squeezing the Thig-a-magie into focus. t

This one is a different matter because you can work out the why and the what and then appreciate the skill by which it was done together with the overall effect.
(if I'm right, that is - pull-out bellows camera?)

Thanks guys,
Yes a pull out Voigtländer Vitoret (D). Quite a neat old camera. The camera is leather clad aluminum with high precision focus rail and extender rails. I have made a few repairs to this one, but is missing parts, I have a newer version with the needed parts but would rather another version of this one to pull parts from.
A fun hobby.
And yes I was experimenting with the two focus points in the photo. I had a lot of fun playing around with these shots, trying to show both what the camera see's and the operator see's. Having DOF preview feature didn't really exist in those days, one just squinted their eyes really tight...
I appropriate the comments
