Here's another shot from my "In Praise of Excellence" series. Another wide open shot from the stunning Zeiss Milvus 2/135mm. One of my favorite things about this image is the shadow play on the leaf, which itself has some backlighting from the sun. It just makes for an interesting result, and the utter creaminess of the defocused region is fabulous. Want to see (and read more)? Here's the article and gallery: bit.ly/DAexcellence

I've been so focused on video lately that I haven't processed any of the photos I've taken while I was in my blind waiting for Whistling ducks to jump.

 

This photo is a good example of a situation where manual focus shines. There would have been no way to get this with AF with the bird's eye moving behind the new cypress leaves, but with manual focus it was easy to follow him and take the photo right when his eye was clear of the greenery.

 

not part of my 365 but i found this sitting in my iphoto from yesterday and thought it was pretty. i love the bokeh. not super typical or anything. i'm creative. no biggie. just messing with manual focus, which i have fallen in love with. everyone: i suggest playing with your manual! it's so much fun. yay for eminem lyrics! i love this song. it's such a good one. one of my faves that he is featured in.

Busker - Banjo Andy (Manual focus lens)

Minolta XD11 manual focus camera. Made from 1977-1984. It is one of the best manual focus camera Minolta ever made before the introduction of auto focus camera and the last full metal body from Minolta. It is also the first 35mm camera to have both "Shutter Priority" and "Aperture Priority" It was very advance for it time and it served as a base for Leica R4, R5, R6, and R7.

 

Beautiful camera to hold and use. It feels great in hands.This one have been fully overhauled and recovered with "Goldish Black Croc Embossed" cowhide.

3 more shots with the 200mm manual focus lens to show it wasn't a fluke , shot no.4 shows up its superiority over a A/F lens in that its not affected by the background . so far quite pleased with the results

Taken last night on my first outing with my camera for a few weeks! It was a beautiful evening but I got there a little too late and only had enough time to get a few shots before the lovely light was gone :(

 

This is my first proper dabble with manual focus too, what a revelation!!

Since this picture was taken I have traded away all but the genuine Pentax lenses shown here.

 

Shot using a Pentax *istDL with 18-55mm kit lens. Due to three different light sources I took two shots at different WB settings and then combined them for something close to the correct colours.
