and a wonderful and safe new week.... and saying goodbye to May...

Helios 44M-4 58mm f2

Not sure about this one as the focus isn't great, but I like it from a distance because of the bokeh!

thank you all! thanks to flickr in explore

A candid photo of someone having a moment of radical imagination and of dreaming of walking through the sea of revolution. Unfortunately, he does not wish to get his shoes wet.

There's something beautiful about decay!

Apart from being able to produce "swirly" bokeh (under carefully arranged circumstances) my modified Helios 44M-4 is good for the "toy camera" effect. An acceptable focus would only be in the centre withy the lens stopped down to F4 or so. Here a shot across our local cemetery. Some might even find this 'atmospheric'.

But they look far better left where they are for others to enjoy! 😍
