Quite a new user in the world of MFlenses but I think I've seen the light, or too much of it.

I've spent most of the time experimenting with the glorious bokeh, which made me get the Helios in the first place. But I also tried some other shots, and abused the lack of MC on my example.

Eitherway here's a few pickings which I thought were showable. Yes, one include myself with my pet Rat.

Well thanks, it's a she and she's named Houdini, I guess you can figure out how she earned that. One hint, 3 days behind the kitchen furniture.

( I figured I should resize the photo's a tad bit more for next time ! )

Thanks for the positive replies / feedback all! I only own M42 / Manual lenses for 1.5 weeks now, but this afternoon was one of the first times I really had some time to play with.
