I was sitting down at my PC and going through some of my latest images. I really liked this one and wanted to share before I call it a completed day. Take care my friends.

Only a few weeks before it's... tulip time again :) Hooray! As a teaser, here's a sunny tulip from 2019 which I've photographed at the Tulipan flower show at the Britzer Garten, Berlin's most beautiful public park. The lens responsible for this crazy bokeh is my vintage OM Zuiko Auto-S 50mm F1.4 lens. Judging from the "wild" bokeh shapes I must have taken this wide open. Stopped down a little, the bokeh becomes a tad more civilized before the bokeh balls turn into nice-looking "diamonds" at around F4.
Over the past few years, I have collected so many tulip photos from Britz alone that one might say it's enough for a lifetime, but on the other hand, you can't ever photograph too many flowers, tulips included, can you? Right :) So will I visit this year's Tulipan? You bet I will ;)
Have a nice spring (or autumn) week ahead, dear Flickr friends!
More macro practice from the studio in the barn. Sending everyone a blast of color this holiday season ✨
Macro Mondays "redux 2022" theme spiral was the inspiration for this photo.
I really want to share some autumn color but I haven't been out leaf peeping yet. But this was taken on a photo walk with my good friend Linda and I love the autumn tones and colors.
Please view in Large screen to appreciate the bokeh!!
Taking a small break from Flickr for a few days I will be back soon!! 10/7/22

A memorable sunrise from a few years ago. Nature created the scene and I captured it with my favorite vintage lens. I enhanced it by adjusting the color balance and color intensity.
The dream of spring and the soon-to-begin summer has come true. Just as surprisingly, nature is bursting into full greenery and flowers. Oh wonderful life, this is what I love 💚 In Finland, in the evening, in May.
These were my tulips when they were past their expiry date, but still look so pretty to me. They were hanging down out of a crystal vase.
I took this with my Helios lens - f2, and a 12mm extension tube. I was very close, and didn't add the painterly effect. Came out of the camera like this :)

We finally got a lot of rain in the past couple of days. During a break in the rain, I took my camera into the backyard and laid it in the grass to shoot the droplets. This image is the epitome of simplicity, and not tack sharp, but I like how dreamy it turned out.
Taken with my vintage Pentacon AV 80mm lens, and 12mm Kenko extension tube.
Last night
the rain
spoke to me
slowly, saying,
what joy
to come falling
out of the brisk cloud,
to be happy again
in a new way
on the earth!
