I really like the first two. Have you introduced the colour in No. 2 or is that the way it is?

It's a fantastic cheap little lens Very Happy I'm really surprised. Before I bought it, I had heard that Yashica ML lens were very interesting, and I found this one for little price and I gave it a try. The results are very impressive and I really like it's construction and look (very like Zeiss for C/Y).

About the 2nd photo. It's in the (probably) most important train station here in Portugal, Lisbon. It was designed by the architect Santiago Calatrava on it's very own way. It's a wonderfull place for some photos for me Smile

Thank you for your pleasant comments.

Nice lens and some very interesting shots. I am uncertain about the green hue of the first ones - I thought the WB was off! Embarassed Embarassed

It looks like cross processed Provia.
I like it in the 3rd shot.
Sometimes these effects can be a bit of a gimmick.
Here it works pretty well.

Very nice series, Rodrigo...
You work well the wide angles, I've been visiting your Peleng pictures and they are really nice!

Thanks for sharing!.

Thank you Jesito. In fact i really think I prefer wide angle than teles. That's why I'm considering selling some of my tele lenses but not decided which one yet.. Confused

I also feel more comfortable with wide angles than with teles. My favourites are the Tamron 24mm and the Flekto 35mm. 50mm lenses are my "teles".

However, in some circunstances, a 135 or a 200 tele may be necessary. I wouldn't recommend you to get rid of all the teles....

No way I'm gonna get rid of all of them.. I like them a lot too, and I'm really considering keeping the 2 Sonnars... Embarassed

How is that Tamron? I'm looking for a wider lens than the Yashica but they aren't cheap at all.... Crying or Very sad

The shots do have a film look to them. Nice.
