Coffee press wavy lines... by Jan Timmons

151 72

...with mostly bokeh bling! I love bokeh, I admit apologetically. And with lights covered by yellow-gold transparent paper and this Laowa lens focusing so closely and magnifying the tiny wavy lines, these bokeh balls just sort of happen ;-)

Laowa 60mm f/2.8 2x macro lens. About 2inches/.5cm width of frame.

About f/4 aperture.

Plus, it is raining! Yippee!

"How much better is silence; the coffee cup, the table. How much better to sit by myself like the solitary sea-bird that opens its wings on the stake. Let me sit here for ever with bare things, this coffee cup, this knife, this fork, things in themselves, myself being myself."

— Virginia Woolf (The Waves)

Sint-Maartensheide Beek Bree Belgium.

Even breekt de zon (bijna) door de nevel en creëert een hemels warm licht boven de Sint-Maartensheide.

Mijn vintage Jupiter-3 lens weet als geen ander de kleuren in de achtergrond te mengen en tovert zo een hemels bokeh achter deze pantserjuffer waardoor de ogen prachtig tot hun recht komen.

Deze dag kan niet meer stuk.

(Jupiter-3 1:1,5 F=5cm early version anno 1953)

Leotax Leonon-S 5cm f2 modified.

Leonon lens is one of those that create bokeh that could not be missed or ignored. Some, like me, love it, other, like gear reviewers, see it as grave default. It produces rich, wild and swirly bokeh somehow similar to Biotar and Helioses.

So, I tried the same hack as the one often done with Helios-44, I inverted the first element of the lens. Mechanically, it did not work well. Contrary to Helios, with Leonon I could not attach the lens back and keep it permanently converted. The result is what I expected. The subject in the focus stays in focus, Very light flowers becomes noticeably soft and glowy. The bokeh is just perfectly broken.
