I guess the glow look has a lot to do with how the late 1800' ealy 1900's lenses rendered the image on a negative that was so large that it hardly had to be enlarged even if it fills a page of a book. I'v e got myself a 1930 folding camera with an uncoated lens and one day I will try to get that glow on the 6 x 9 cm negative, but I'll get hold of an eastern European old technology film like Efke or Fomapan first.
