One of the most bubble bokeh shots I've got behind a fence, using a Tomioka Auto-Revuenon 55/1.2. HFF!

Minolta P-Rokkor 2.5/75 from Minolta Mini 3

What a crazy hot summer it has been! Now it's cooler but I just heard that with humidity it is going up to 30 degrees tomorrow, Crazy!

Alliums are exploding all around! Spring and Autumn....you can't beat these two seasons for the changes they bring ;-))

Asahi-Kogaku Takumar 100mm f:3.5 (1952)

Adapter M-37 to Pentax bayonet

Pentax K-1

Pentax in-camera processing: RAW-Converter, various digital filters, compression.

This early Takumar lens (for the Asahiflex), like the Meyer Trioplan, has a triplet design and is also a great candidate for bokeh bubbles!

HSS!

Found some old unedited files from a few years back that seem quite relevant for the odd times we find ourselves in right now...stay safe everyone. Title taken from Bowie’s Changes....

'Heroes' by David Bowie, recorded at Hansa Studio, Berlin, 1977

Another of my (all-time) favourite songs - it never fails to lift my spirits

I love the cheer- and playfulness of David Bowie when performing live in Berlin 2002 ('Shut up, Bowie!') - I think he loved to be back !!

That's an outdoor chess game in the urban garden of my hometown, by the way :)

[vintage manual focus lens (SMC Pentax-M 1:1.7 50mm) - wide open]

Ein weiterer meiner (Allzeit-) Lieblingssongs:

David Bowies 'Heroes' ist immer in der Lage, meine Stimmung zu heben

Ich liebe die Heiterkeit und Verspieltheit von David Bowie, als er 2002 live in Berlin auftrat - ich denke, er war gerne zurück :)

Beautiful to walk around in summers and enjoy the fragrance and sight of British roses.

It is still cold, but with early blooming cherry blossoms my heart feels like spring...

With a Thypoch Eureka 50mm f2 wide open. A collapsible Leica M mount lens.

Lovely artist's light providing a bit of bubbly bokeh!

Seed heads silhouetted against the last of the suns rays on the riverside waters...taken with the Helios 44M

Cloudbursts and sunshine...and rainbow bokeh! That's what makes me happy....shame I hadn't got the grass in proper focus but hey ho such is life ;-))

Exploring blurriness. Pentacon projection lenses have a certain "name" in this regard. It is difficult to find reasonably priced one that is in good shape. Here are a few test shots.

The dust in the air is my favourite subject for bokeh photos :-)

Autumns colours don't last long but this one leaf has decided to hang around a little longer...

Spring has finally sprung! Thought it deserved a riot of colour to celebrate! Thanks Graham for the nudge!😉

Spring is almost upon us but it seems some Autumnal colour is still hanging on in there! Shot with the Helios 44M.

I love how the leaves take on a flame like quality at their height in Autumn
