I have not had much time here the last week or so.
Well not as much as I have had. My back is finally working OK so I am in a hurry to go have some fun when it is not raining.
Here are a few shots from a short hike near the house.
The trail takes you thru the forest and past a big pond to a seaside bluff.
The usual trees and dogs from me
This lens really saturates more than I expected
I had to crank down the sat. a bunch at times and other times I just left it.
Please comment and enjoy. Love the lens. Thanks Attila

Just beautiful shots, Andy! What a bounty of scenery to shoot in! Like the
dog's sweater, too.
I can't imagine you would be displeased with the lens, quite a performer! |

Leave the saturation !
This is a great lens for blasting with color. I swear its not German, its Mexican. _________________ I like Pentax DSLR's, Exaktas, M42 bodies of all kinds, strange and cheap Japanese lenses, and am dabbling in medium format/Speed Graphic work. |

Nice series Andy. I like the selective DOF in the last picture. I seem to notice that wide open, your Biotar has a similar bokeh to that of Helios-40(-2) around the corners... is that just my impression or you can confirm? _________________ Orio, Administrator

Thanks you all for the Kind words.
This lens is going to become a favorite for me.
I think that one of my Helios 40 is now for sale
Orio is correct this lens has a very similar "radial" Bokeh when wide open.
Now knowing this I will need to take advantage of it.
Here is a failed shot that shows that effect more strikingly.
