A healthy patch of fungi is living on old mossy stump in our local forest. The morning fog provided enough water in the surroundings to play around with the bubble Bokeh effect of my Trioplan lens.
Shot with my Meyer Optik Görlitz Trioplan 50/2.9 V Lens from the 1950ies in Altix mount with extension tubes on a macro focusing rail. I modified it to fit a modern Nikon FX body. The lens is in good shape and depending on the subject of the photo mostly free of fungus ;)
The Telemegor 400 mm f/5.5 is a bubble bokeh monster. I would say it has stronger bubbles than the Trioplan 100. Here I've used a focusing helicoid to get a little closer then the rather long minimum focusing distance of 5.5m, which will render bigger bubbles. It is not a very sharp lens but it renders in a unique soft way like no other lens.
This image is uncropped and de-saturated.

I didn't like this composition first but after some processing I kind of like this mess. There is a little bit of everything in here. Bright against dark, dark against bright, bubble bokeh, sunflares. Taken on a particular messy part of the shoreline. Pentacon 50mm f1.8 wide open and shot "blind".
... in early morning light at St Marx' Cemetery in Vienna, where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart lies buried in an unmarked grave. This little fellow stands not too far from the supposed spot.

I took this photo with one of my favourite lenses the meyer optik gorlitz primotar 135mm, you can still pick this lens up relatively cheaply and for me the bokeh effect is amazing.

Trioplans are too expensive for me. But my F-mount converted Helios 44-2 with 20mm extension tubes is at least close for the bubble bokeh :)
I will need more time to play around with this but it actually looks quite promising!

... shimmering heat - and a 'sweeting' / burning tree (which also is the entrance to the underworld and the way to the Rain Maiden)
"Die Regentrude" [The Rain Maiden], a German tale by Theodor Storm (published in the year 1863):
Beneath a scorching sun the fields are parched, the crops withering, the trees burning and the animals dying. Somewhere under the earth the young goddess, the Rain Maiden, has fallen asleep, forgotten by the villagers who once paid annual homage to her in return for rain. But only she can defeat the Fire Goblin and release the clouds from their fortress prison to make it rain.
The rich meadow farmer, unaffected by such droughts, disbelieves such legends and hastily promises his elderly neighbour that his daughter, Maren, can marry her son, Andrew, if the Rain Maiden can make it rain within a day.
Responding to her father's promise, Maren sets off with Andrew to find the Rain Maiden on a journey that takes them down a hollowed tree into a strange underworld among arid landscapes of dried-up lakes, dry river beds, dying forests and withered gardens.

I love(d) this fairy tale, because (for me) it is telling a story of strong women ... : ))

... gleißende Hitze und ein "schwitzender" / brennender Baum, der zugleich auch den Eingang zur Unterwelt ist - der Weg zur Regentrude (im Märchen eine Weide)
"Die Regentrude" von Theodor Storm (veröffentlicht 1863):
Ein sengend heißer Sommer lässt die Menschen im Dorf fast verzweifeln. Die Ernte verdorrt, Gras und Bäume brennen und das Vieh verdurstet auf den Weiden.
Angesichts der drohenden Hungersnot erwacht bei vielen Dörflern der alte Glaube an die Regentrude, die für den Leben spenden Regen zuständig ist. Doch von Zeit zu Zeit schläft sie ein — besonders dann, wenn der Glaube an sie erlischt. Jemand muss die Regentrude aufwecken! Die rettende Tat kann nur von einem mutigen jungen Mädchen vollbracht werden, das den anstrengenden und gefährlichen Weg zur Regentrude auf sich nimmt, der in die Unterwelt führt. Der Eingang ist eine alte vertrocknete Weide.
Eine Geschichte vor allem über starke Frauen!
