Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

Shapes · 06:28 AM

A very simple shot, actually more of a test shot with my newly acquired Helios 44M, but a few things struck me:
- This lens is SHARP wide open, incredible
- The color rendition is very different from what I'm used to with Pentax lenses, but I like it. Very film-like, somehow

- Although it is very capable of super swirly bokeh, it is incredibly smooth here

There's a little play with shapes and colors in this shot that I like.

Using the camera to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary! I love this sort of thing, Laurent.

The lovely old Coca-Cola glass.
