I like them,especially the bridge #6,and did you purposefully blur some of them?

I have to ask and mean no offence...I have seen many statues of fountains with the little boys weeing but I have never seen one like #9 before...are they common in Italy?

Thank you Mo.
Today I chose to go with the 50/2 just to play with blur. Unfortunately I haven't achieved the results that I was in charge.
Yes! It's a quite common subject for italian renaissance fountains, almost as much as the male subject Laughing

Laughing well you learn something new every day!


I also like trying to use the blur of a lens as well...not often but every now and then.I think with the right subject and style it may produce some stunning shots...... sort of like #4 and #10.

The 4th is one of my favorites today. I was not sure post it because I don't know if I can communicate my intentions in that shot.
Unfortunately, on Monday morning, the city is almost empty and there are fewer opportunities to take pictures.
But I had confirmation that a mirrorless with a mf lens is the right choice in digital Very Happy

Getting to know your NX100... Smile

Try to stay at ISO 100 when you can, dynamic range and colours are better.

You certainly caught the mood in #4...I wonder if you had it in focus would it have the same "feeling". It is fun to use these digital cameras and MF lenses in different ways.. Very Happy

Nice images. But also typical softness of the 50mm f2. Pentax has some better 50mm s IMO...

Yes, the 50/2 is not the best 50mm in Pentax but it's so cheap...
Actually I'm using the M 50/1,7

The image actually is very ancient and comes from the Greek myth of Galathea.
Like all classic myths, it was made "mondano" in the Renaissance
(sorry, the online vocabulary I used did not give me a good translation for the word)
