This lens doesn't like low light. Nailing focus and consequently sharpness is an issue. But the color and bokeh rendering is marvelous in my opinion.

Enjoy the day and rest of the weekend...
I will take this time to apologize for the lack of commenting.... this is such a busy time of the season with me taking care of so many Monarch caterpillars.... I think they must have an internal clock that is ticking because everything they are doing is much faster... that includes eating and pooping!! The Monarchs I will be releasing and tagging will live for 8-9 months and take the long flight down to Mexico....
unlike the ones that we see earlier in the summer that only live 2-6 weeks.
To date, I have released 326 with 44 in chrysalis and a ton of caterpillars and tiny hatchlings... and eggs I haven't counted!!
This is Ruby. One of the pair I have been following for some time now. Ruby is a bit cautious around this time, probably pregnant.

From my summer holiday and languishing with my other shots on my PC that were taken using my oldest Sony, the A7M2 with a CZ Jena Pancolar 50mm1.8 and a helicoid focusing ring. Belly shot of course and made sure Jonathan in the vicinity just in case I couldn't get back up lol....taken in the Towans at Gwithian. The dogs get a walk and I get a few pics and Jonathan gets a rest. Very pleasant allround as we weren't , still aren't in the best of health but a holiday in Cornwall is the best medicine I reckon... I forgot the name of this very tiny flower too but again too tired to look just now...
...or reach for the bokeh balls ;-) Luckily there are still a few flowers in our garden which are not faded like this cosmos. Even though I really like my Cyclop, I've used my Helios 44-2 for this picture. I hope you like it! Have a great weekend my friends!
on a rainy Saturday!
Happy Caturday and wishing everyone a wonderful weekend and Happy and Safe Independence Day!!!
Frosty morning and blindingly bright on this new little rhododendron plant.
Thanks for looking.

I have been curious about the frames that people put out. So, I thought let me try it. What do you think ? 🤔

Venus is in the lower left and Mars/Jupiter are in the upper right of the photo at a 45 degree angle.
Using a focusing rail and four studio lights for this tiny part of an Osteospermum.
I know this is not for everyone. I wore a contact lens in my good eye until I couldn't, and heavy thick spectacles/glasses since the age of 7 years.
That's why I'm grateful for my long lens and decent cameras to peruse details on my monitors, along with the powerful scope to watch birds. Kind of you to comment.
I remember when I didn't want an African Violet and my mother was always offering to give me one of hers... after she passed away, I took one of hers and added eleven more to the collection... many have multiple plants in each pot... and are always in bloom....
hers is close to 40 years old and the others are close to 30... same pot, no fertilizer and I water from the bottom every Saturday!
