Helios 44-2 58 mm + 12 II Extension Tube

Before the final fall of leaves as winter sets in...

Trying desperately to channel my Inner Zen lol!! 😁

A welcome splash of colour in the gardens at this time of year! The weather has been just too dreadful to get out for weeks now.

Ready to disperse.....shot with the Helios 44M.

The mild winter seems to be encouraging new signs of life to emerge a little early...shot with the Helios 44M.

remembering the old song of the birds when I looked at the flowers of summer

Happy Helios days wandering through the Echinaceas with the Bees...

Wall to wall torrential rain today...which we need...but editing a splash of colour was much needed.

The woodlands are still a sea of Bluebells and Wood Anemones...but it won't be long until they leave us for another year. The scent is intoxicating in the Spring sunshine ❤️

I love the delicate flower of the Hellebore...this was a few weeks ago now.

Maybe the squirrels decided to leave this one lone sweet chestnut for another day....at least I think that's what it is!

Every time I think...no more...i see another tree hanging on in there and the temptation is too great. Shot with the Fuji XT1 and the trioplan 2.8 100mm.

..Ladybird style. Shot with the Helios 44M

This year has been wonderful for the Bluebells...possibly due to the lack of rain to flatten them these past few weeks.

Lens: Meyer-Optik Gorlitz Trioplan V 100mm f2.8

I have wanted this lens for quite a while now. I got a terrific price on this one and it's almost like new. Quite happy with it.

Springtime in a British woodland...soaking up the Bluebells. No time quite like it 😍

Lens: 40-2 85mm f/1.5

Scabious flowers waiting for the bees and butterflies to descend...I gave up chasing them around and settled for just the flowers instead!!! Cop out 😁

Stark but beautiful...waiting for Spring. Shot using the Helios 44M.

Lens: Tamron SP BBAR MC Macro (23A) 60-300mm f/3.8-5.4

smc Pentax Zoom 45-125mm f/4

This large Vitex bush is right by the back deck and is quite the magnet for pollen gatherers.. It affords so many opportunities and the flowers are quite spectacular twice a year.

From Wikipedia:

Abutilon is a large genus of flowering plants in the mallow family, Malvaceae. It is distributed throughout the tropics and subtropics of the Americas, Africa, Asia, and Australia. General common names include Indian mallow and velvetleaf; ornamental varieties may be known as room maple, parlor maple, or flowering maple. The genus name is an 18th-century Neo-Latin word that came from the Arabic the name given by Avicenna to this or a similar genus.

I actually messed up when I took this photo. I was just going to delete and then I decided maybe I could make something kind of interesting out of it.

Shot using the Helios 44M...I'm not sure what the sea of tall yellow wildflowers were but the marshy fields were full of them.

I was hoping to get a bit of a lens flare with this lens. I wasn't able to see the straight line flares until I uploaded it to Lightroom. I like the effect.
