Sincere thanks for your views, faves and comments.

Shot in very low light at the end of an Autumns day with the Helios 44M...again!!

I am learning and testing the lens at the same time. It is taken on fully manual including metering and the image is unedited. Honest opinion will be much appreciated.

 

Thank you for viewing. If you like please fav and leave a nice comment. Hope to see you here again. Have a wonderful day 😊

The striped arcade, this time shot from a higher vantage point.

 

I had to wait for what felt like half an hour for a single person to walk down the arcade while the sun was not obscured by clouds.

Window front of a university building in my city

 

On this Sunday I only had old manual lenses with me, but wanted to try out architectural images like this anyway when I "stumbled upon" this glass building ...

 

This 29mm lens is a bit soft at the edges even when stopped down, so it might be an advantage that I'm shooting with a 1.5 crop (APSC) sensor ... and it isn't that easy to get the focus right ... but I had fun playing around a bit ( kudos to my husband and his patience! ) : ))

Kurz nach Mittag eine Fahrt mit dem Oldtimer über die Dörfer. Ganz in der Nähe, die Gerste ist gemäht und ihre Halme zu Strohballen gerollt. Bei vielen Bauern liegen die Tiere allerdings nicht mehr auf Stroh. Hier werden Schweine, Rinder oder Kühe Glück haben.

 

Straw bales...ready for collection

Shortly after noon, a trip in a vintage car through the villages. Very close by, the barley has been mown and its stalks rolled into straw bales. In many stables, however, the animals no longer lie on straw. Pigs, cattle or cows may be lucky here.

My eldest son and I had been ordered to go and get the car whist the other 3 waited at the park. As Oliver and I wondered along the Shropshire Union Canal tow path, the sun getting fairly low in the sky, I spotted a fully seeded dandelion. I had to give a favourite shot of mine another attempt; capturing the seeds being blown off in flight. It's quite tricky to do, especially hand held - I got Oliver to hold the plant still while I focused up - and flicked to manual focus. Poised to fire and hold the shutter release down - I was suddenly distracted by a rather pleasent fellow walker who had spotted what we were doing and was waiting patiently for us to execute our photographic "masterpiece". Naturally I insisted she go past (not wanting the pressure of being watched) and we re-set-up and went for it. 1-2-3 - blow... Here's the result, I missed probably some of the best bits, but hey ho...

HSS: attempted to make this lower contrast in pp and added one extra seed at the edge of the frame...
