Saturday I put on my Sony A580 one of my favorite lenses (especially for the price Laughing ) Helios 44 / 2 ... and tried to take pictures with it only ... from morning to night .... Very Happy Cool
The first shots (1-6) are taken at 6:00 in the morning, after work (night shift )..... the other images are taken during a walk in the mountains in the afternoon with family and some friends (dinner at a chalet and back at night).
Nothing special.... the chronicle of a day with Helios Very Happy

1 Boat station


2 transparency...?!?!?


3 first light of day


4 pier


5 lake and mountain


6 clouds and sky


7 walking


8 My oldest son


9 Italy


10 On top there is the small church dedicated to St. Bernard ....


11 is closed...


12 St. Bernard through the window...


13 the cross...


14 Lace your boots .... go down to dinner


15 Suspended above the lake...


16 A flock of sheep at sunset ...


17 Lonely ....( with flare! But I liked the atmosphere Smile .....)


18 Just before the night...


19 The return through the woods .....


I put many pictures sorry if I bored ......
Greetings to all! Very Happy

They are all great. I especially like the two sheep shots and the "lace your boots" shot. Excellent!

The IQ of this lens is always surprisingly. Nice idea to go only with one lens the whole day. Very nice series and I must say I like Lake Como and the area around.

Thanks for sharing.

I think this is your best ever series, Daniele!
My favourites:

#9, for the simple composition and the strong vertical push
#11, I like the shadow
#13, takes the breath away

but the absolute champion for me is

#18
it has so much mood it in, that it can kill
somehow it reminds me of my own childhood and the time spent looking at landscapes and wandering with my mind far away... in far away days...
Magic.

Thanks Orio Embarassed ..... The # 18 is my favorite for the same reason, I was so .... but perhaps I am so even now that I have about 40 years .... Smile
