Just some random shots. (I know we are late compared to other places in the world)
Levels, contrast and sharpness fixed in PS. Camera Sony A700.

Bee on Gore-Tex jacket. Flek 35 2.4


Fly on Gore-Tex jacket. Flek 35 2.4


Bee on shoelace. Flek 35 2.4


Just a funny capture when the fly sets of from blue jeans, looking like a Lunar lander or something. Flek 35 2.4


Early spring flowers with nice bokeh. S-M-C 50 1.4 @ 1.4


Bright colors seems to attract the insects this early in the season Very Happy

The Flektogon 35/2.4 shots are very good in displaying the character of the lens, but the Scilla sibirica is such a great shot I even find the bokeh suitable for the image (usually I detest wild or swirly bokeh Very Happy )

Thanx all.

There was a hill a few meters behind the focus point where the flowers continued to grow. So each unfocus-blob is placed where a flower was, without swirly distorsion. So this is wild bokeh then...
Thanx for the latin name, we call them just Scilla as an everyday name in Sweden I think.

No masterpieces in this thread, but I'll throw in something colorful from my first round with the newly Sony-converted Leitz 60 macro 2.8 that I put my hands on last week.

Just a butterfly, the second I spotted this year


My son in difficult hard noon-light, although quite pleasing background I think.


Color and contrast seems to be well controlled with this lens. I have not worked with correct rescaling here. But they look a little bit better when clicked upon. I'll try to improve next time.

More stuff from Elmarit-R 60 macro. Open in native size for best IQ.

A walk in the woods with some 3D effect.


A spider perhaps 7mm long. Elmarit-R + 1.7x TC + macro flash tube (hand held of course). I had to chase it a long time before it stood still for a few seconds, I was lucky to get focus and exposure almost right during this split second.


Flowers.

This is what I have been occupied with the last week...

My brother also got married the same week. Helios 44M-4 @ 2.4


And my son just loves tools, I wonder why... S-M-C 50 @ 2


And outside, the cherry blossom is just about to explode. CZJ 35 2.4, shot from my balcony.


Cheers

More great pics!! The one with the drill & your son looks like it could be an ad for the tool.

You may want to start another thread when you post more pics as it tends to generate more interest.
